Papa John's sold 236 pizzas last night. The manager wants to give the workers a prize if they can increase the number of pizzas sold by 24%. How many pizzas do they need to sell to get the prize? (Remember if there is a decimal to round up to the next whole number so 13.2 would become 14)

Sagot :

11 cheese pizzas and 43 pepperoni pizzas

Answer:

You need to increase the amount of pizza sold by 24%, you can do it one of two ways:

236*0.24 = 56.64 and then do 236 + 56.64 = 292.64

(this way you find out what 24% of 236 is and then add it to 236 to get an increase of 24% )

or you can do this:

236 *1.24 = 292.64

(this way you're finding out what 124% of 236 is. I find this way easier because there's less steps. it works because you're still finding out what 24% is, you're just keeping the 236 there)

either way they need to sell 293 pizza's to get the prize
