The recipe makes enough stew for 6 people, and the ingredients cost $9.75. How much would it cost to serve
24 people?
A student solved the problem using the proportion
24 Explain the error in this proportion.
6
9.75

it doesnt show the proportion. but a correct proportion is 6/9.75=24/39

$2416.6

step-by-step explanation:

per hour = $ 25

total work time = 35

commission = 15%

total she has to make = $ 4,500

let she sold x dollar products

so her commission will be 15 % of x

now

total = weekly basic pay + commission

4500= (25*35) + 15 % of x

4500=875 + * x

4500-875 =   * x

3625= * x

multiplying wwith 100 on both sides gives

36250 = 15 x

now

x =  

x= $2416.6

the weight of the object inside the box!
