A book sold 35,300 copies in its first month of release. Suppose this represents 6.3 of the numbers sold to date. How many copies have been sold to date?

Respuesta :

Answer:

560,317.460

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of copies that have been sold is shown below:-

we assume the number of copies is x

So, the number of copies in the first month is

= [tex]\frac{6.3}{100} x[/tex]

As per the situation the number of sold copies is 35,300 so the equation will be

[tex]\frac{6.3}{100} x = 35,300[/tex]

[tex]6.3x = 35,300\times 100[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{35,300\times 100}{6.3}[/tex]

after solving the above equation we will get the number of copied that have been sold to date

= 560,317.460
