Question from Abeth, a teacher: Bobby dela Cruz is the purchasing agent for school supplies of a certain university. Because of new research projects, Bobby ordered an additional 32,500 worth of supplies this month. This is a 15% increase from last month. What was the value of the school supplies that Bobby ordered last month? |
No, but this is probably only due to a typing mistake. (Also note that an order value must involve an integral number of cents.) Try again and tell us what you did.
Good Hunting!
