Work Step by Step
To express a percent as a decimal, we can move the decimal point two places to the left.
$10\% = 0.1$
$20\% = 0.2$
We can calculate the decrease in customers.
$decrease = (0.1)(60)$
$decrease = 6$
The number of customers in February is 54.
We can calculate the price increase.
$increase = (0.2)(\$500)$
$increase = \$100$
The new price in February is $\$600$
We can calculate the sales in January.
$sales = (60)(\$500)$
$sales = \$30,000$
We can calculate the sales in February.
$sales = (54)(\$600)$
$sales = \$32,400$
From January to February, the sales increased by $\$2400$
