Calculated Answer

600

Step by Step Solution

In order to solve problem, you must evaluate (n₁ * 100) / (100 - n₀).

• (n₁ * 100) / (100 - n₀)

• Evaluate n₁ * 100 = 24000

  24000 / (100 - n₀)

• Evaluate 100 - n₀ = 40

  24000 / 40

• Evaluate 24000 / 40 = 600

  600
• The answer to the problem and the result of (n₁ * 100) / (100 - n₀) is 600
