Question

help with this problem  QF = [$207308.02+ $382,000(1 – .40) – $127000(.40)]/[($35.70 – 6.80)(1 – .40)]

Answer 1

22243.83 is the result

 

 

You cannot have dollar signs in the amounts

You cannot have commas either

Finally the square braces [] must be replaced with round parenthesis( )

 

I also replaced (1-0.4) with 0.6 so as to reduce the number of

parenthesis needed and make it more readable

 

After removing unnecessary white spacing,

The formula now looks like this:

 

=(207308.02+382000*0.6-127000*0.4)/((35.7-6.8)*0.6)

 

which has the result of 22243.83
