Jose started a small business.
•In the first year, he spent $12,000 on advertising.
•In the second year, he spent 40% more for advertising than he spent in the first year.
What was the total amount of money that Jose spent for advertising in the second year? Show work.
First we can divide 12,000 by 10 to get 10% of it: 1,200. Then we multiply it by 4 to get 40%: 4,800. Next we add 12,000 to 4,800: 16,800. He spent $16,800 on advertising during the second year, hope this helps!
