You can put this solution on YOUR website! The revenue for a sandwich shop is directly proportional to its advertising budget. When the owner spent $2000 a month on advertising, the revenue was $120,000. If the revenue is now $180,000, how much is the owner spending on advertising?
--------------
Let the spending amount be "x".
Proportion:
x /180,000 = 2000/120,000
x = 180000(2000/120000)
x = 180(2000/120)
x = $3000.00
