TECHNOLOGY A company produces 2,500 of a particular printer. They later discover that 25% of the printers have defects. How many printers from this group have defects?
Remember: Part = % Whole
5/5
Define the variable: How many printers are defective
Since all the printers are not defective, need to find the part
x
How many printers from this group have defects
Convert 25% to a decimal
x = 0.25
TECHNOLOGY A company produces 2,500 of a particular printer. They later discover that 25% of the printers have defects. How many printers from this group have defects?
Company produces 2,500 which is the total number of printers
5/5
x
How many printers from this group have defects
x = 0.25x = 0.25 2,500
Since the variable is by itself, multiply 0.25 2,500
x = 625
Add dimensional analysis
x = 625 defective printers
Answer: 625 printers had defects
TECHNOLOGY A company produces 1,400 of a particular monitor. They later discover that 20% of the monitors have defects. How many monitors from this group have defects?
