Question 583618
Solve the problem by stating the equation you would use to solve and then solving it.
 Brand X copier advertises that its copiers run 23% longer between service calls than its competitor.
 If Brand X copiers run 62,300 copies between service calls, how many copies would the competitor run (to the nearest copy).
:
let y = no. of copies of competitor
:
The multiplier for a 23% increase is 1.23
:
1.23y = 62300
y = {{{62300/1.23}}}
y = 50,650 copies
