ansley: how do I do this problem: 0.06x times $28,000
Arn't you allowed to use a calculator?
I'll show you
0.06 x 28,000 = 0.06 X 100/100 x 28000
= 0.06 x 100 x 1/100 x 28000 Basically I have multiplied 0.06 by 100 and divided 28000 by 100. So that the answer won't change.
= 6 x 280
= 6 x 28 x 10 (You could probaly just answer from here but i just showed you how i might keep going )
= 6 (20+8) x 10
= (120+48) x 10
= 168 x 10
= 1680
