Question

A tailor had 5000 buttons.He sawed 9 buttons on each shirt and had 2048 buttons left.Then,he sold all shirts at $36 each.find the total amount collected by the tailor?​

Answer 1

Answer: $11,808

Step-by-step explanation:

5000 - 2048 = 2952

By subtracting the total number of buttons by the number of buttons left, it can be calculated that the tailor used a total of 2952 buttons.

Each shirt has 9 buttons, therefore the number of shirts can be calculated as:

2952 ÷ 9 = 328.

Since the shirts sold at $36 each and there are 328 shirts made, the total amount can be calculated as $36 · 328 = $11,808

(I hope this is right :\)

Answer 2

Answer:

5000 - 2048 = 2952

2952 ÷ 9 = 328.
