1. 60% of 24,000 =
2. 55% of 13,400 =
3. 94% of 45,300 =

a 14. 14,040 15. 7,307 16. 42,528
b 14. 104,400 15. 70,370 16. 402,582
c 14. 14,004 15. 70,307 16. 42,580
d 14. 14,400 15. 7,370 16. 42,582

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate 60% of 24,000

To find a percentage of a number, we convert the percentage to a decimal (by dividing by 100) and then multiply by the number. So, 60% as a decimal is \( 0.60 \). Then we calculate \( 0.60 \times 24000 \).
\( 0.60 \times 24000 = 14400 \)

Step2: Calculate 55% of 13,400

55% as a decimal is \( 0.55 \). Multiply this by 13,400: \( 0.55 \times 13400 \).
\( 0.55 \times 13400 = 7370 \)

Step3: Calculate 94% of 45,300

94% as a decimal is \( 0.94 \). Multiply this by 45,300: \( 0.94 \times 45300 \).
\( 0.94 \times 45300 = 42582 \)

Now we compare these results with the options:

• For 14: Our result is 14,400.
• For 15: Our result is 7,370.
• For 16: Our result is 42,582.

Looking at the options, option d has 14. 14,400; 15. 7,370; 16. 42,582.

Answer:

d. 14. 14,400 15. 7,370 16. 42,582
