A vendor sells 20 percent of the pears he had and throws away 50 percent of the remainder. The next day, the vendor sells 20 percent of the remaining pears and throws away the rest. In total, what percent of his pears does the vendor throw away?  Choose the correct choice from the following answers:
A) 56  B) 60  C) 64  D) 68  E) 72

Solution: Let x be the original number of pears.   On day one, the vendor throws away (0.5)(0.8)x=0.4x.   The remaining pears are (0.5)(0.8)x = 0.4x.   On day two, the vendor throws away (0.8)(0.4)x=0.32x.   The vendor throws away a total of 0.4x + 0.32x = 0.72x.   The vendor throws away 72 percent of the pears.   The answer is 72. 0.4  + 0.32=

A circle graph shows how the budget of a certain company was spent: 15 percent for transportation, 9 percent for research and development, 5 percent for utilities, 4 percent for equipment, 2 percent for supplies, and the remainder for salaries. If the area of each sector of the graph is proportional to the percent of the budget it represents, how many degrees of the circle are used to represent salaries? Pick.
A) 216° B) 222° C) 228° D) 234° E) 240°

Solution: The percent of the budget for salaries is 100 - (15+9+5+4+2)= 
100 - (15+9+5+4+2) = 65
65%   100% of the circle is 360 degrees.   Then (65%/100%)*360 = 234 degrees   The answer is 234°.  (65 /100 )*360= 
  (65 /100 )*360 = 234
234 degrees   The answer is 234°.
