Problema Solution
The booster club bought 500 dozen donuts to sell at the football game. As the fans were entering the stadium before the game, they sold 60% of the donuts. After the game, the booster club sold 80% of the remaining donuts as people were leaving. The members of the booster club took all of the remaining donuts home with them. How many donuts did they take home?
Answer provided by our tutors
1 dozen = 12
500 dozen = 500*12 = 6000
6000*(1 - 0.60)(1 - 0.80) = 6000*0.40*0.20 = 6000*0.08 = 480
they took 480 donuts home.
