Fill in the blank; Jess observed that 60 % of the people at a mall on a particular day shopped for clothes. If 2,500 people at the mall did not shop for clothes that day, the number of people who shopped for clothes that day was _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __? (Only put numeric values, no other symbols)

hint 2,500=40%

4. anonymous

So 2,500/40

In forming the team, order in not important. You need to choose 6 out of 9 and 5 out of 7.

\large \color{black}{\begin{align} 2500=\dfrac{40}{100}x\hspace{.33em}\\~\\ \end{align}} solve for $$x$$

u mean 9C6+7C5

8. anonymous

So its 6,250?

9. mathstudent55

Close, but not +; you need * between the two.

10. mathmath333

total -40%=6,250-2500
