Given:
Mark has only used 8.5% of a 34-oz bottle of shampoo.
To find:
How many ounces has he used?
Solution:
According to the question,
Shampoo used by Mark = 8.5% of a 34-oz
[tex]=\dfrac{8.5}{100}\times 34\text{-oz}[/tex]
[tex]=0.085\times 34\text{-oz}[/tex]
[tex]=2.89\text{-oz}[/tex]
Therefore, he used 2.89-oz of shampoo.
