Summarize the following:
Office buildings, hotels, restaurants, and other commercial spaces often have pre-established evacuations plans and procedures. Check with building management to find out about the evacuation protocol if you are in this type of building. Look for evacuation maps on building doors and in public areas such as lobbies and stairwells. If you are looking for evacuation plans for your office, check with your manager or the company head regarding current evacuation plans and what roles different people are to fill during an emergency. Find routes that will get people out of the building with the least risk during an evacuation. Look at your building plans to help people find the exits nearest to them, and create an evacuation plan that takes people to their nearest exit quickly and safely. Try to avoid potential hazards such as going through kitchens or areas with large windows. These pose an excess risk as lines in kitchens can break and exacerbate emergencies while windows may blow out and cause increased risk due to glass. Be sure to avoid mechanical transportation such as elevators, as these could fail and put people at an increased risk. Use stairwells whenever possible. Provide clear markers for people to guide people to exits from the building. Post evacuation maps throughout the building, and mark exits with clear "EXIT" signs. In spaces that do not get much natural light, such as interior hallways, you may also want to consider placing photoluminescent strips along the sides of the floors to help guide people to the nearest exit. Make sure other people using the building know about the evacuation plan. Help them identify their nearest exit and tell them about safety precautions such as avoiding elevators. It may also be helpful to appoint safety monitors to help guide others in the event of an evacuation if you are dealing with a large space that holds a great number of people.

summary: Check evacuation plans. Identify safe escape routes. Mark your routes. Inform others.

Summarize the following:
"If a shirt that costs $40 is reduced to $32, what percentage of a discount is this?" " The amount that exists after the percentage has been applied can also be called the "new amount". For our question, we do not know the percent. We know that $40 is the original, and that's $32 is the "after." Make sure the "after amount" goes into the calculator first. For our example, type 32, hit divide, type 40, hit equals. This division gives us: 0.8. (It's not the final answer.) For our sample problem, 0.8 changes to 80%. If your answer is smaller than 100%, you have a decrease or discount; larger than 100% is an increase. Because the price in the example dropped, and the price that we calculated is also a discount, we're on the right path. If the price in the example dropped from $40 to $32, however, and we got 120% after our calculation, we'd know that something is wrong because we're looking for a discount and we got an increase. Figure out how much above or below 100% you are and this will be your final answer. In our sample problem, 80% compared to 100% means that we had a discount of 20%. To get the hang of things, read the prompt and see if you understand how to finish the following problems: Problem #1: "A $50 blouse is now $28. What was the percentage of discount?" To solve it, grab a calculator. Enter '28,' hit divide, enter '50,' hit equals; the answer is 0.56. Convert '0.56' to '56%'. Compare this number to 100%, subtracting '56' from '100', leaving us with a discount of 44%. Problem #2: "A $12 baseball cap is $15 after tax. What was the sales tax percentage?" To solve it, grab a calculator. Enter '15', hit divide, enter '12', hit equals; the answer is 1.25. Convert '1.25' to '125%'. Compare this to 100%, subtracting '100' from '125', leaving us with an increase of 25%.
summary: Use the perfect percentage method for the following sorts of problems: Decide which number represents the original amount and which represents the "after amount. Divide the "after amount" by the original amount. Move the decimal point two places to the right to change it from a decimal to a percent. Compare that percentage to 100%. Compare your percentage to 100%. Practice on the following examples.
