Answer:
27 dolls.
Step-by-step explanation:
Janet makes homemade dolls per month = 23
She increased her production =18%
18% of her current production = 18% of 23
[tex]\frac{18}{100}[/tex] × 23
= 0.18 × 23 = 4.14 rounded to 4
Now add this to her monthly production = 23 + 4 = 27 dolls
If she increased her production by 18%, Janet would produce 27 dolls each month.
The total number of dolls made by Janet after an 18% increment in production will be 27.
A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction [tex]\bold{\dfrac{1}{4}}[/tex] can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.
To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.
Given to us
Janet increased her production by 18%, therefore,
[tex]18\%\ of\ 23\\\\= \dfrac{18}{100}\times 23\\\\= 4.14 \approx 4[/tex]
thus, Janet will make 4 more dolls if she increases her production by 18%.
Total production of Janet
= Production before + production after 18% increment in production
= 23 + 4
= 27
Hence, the total number of dolls made by Janet after an 18% increment in production will be 27.
