With the major options package and destination charge, a sports car cost $24,416. The base price of the car was ten times the price of the major options package and fifty times the destination charge. What was the base price of the car?


Sagot :

The first thing you do is to convert ten times the price and fifty times the price into a ratio.  10:50. You now add the two numbers together to get 60.  24416 / 60 = 406.9333333.  The base price of the car was $406.93.
