A certain movie star's salary for each film she makes consists of a fixed amount, along with a percentage of the gross revenue the film generates. In her last two roles, the star made $32 million on a film that grossed $100 million, and $24 million on a film that grossed $60 million. If the star wants to make at least $40 million on her next film, what is the minimum amount of gross revenue the film must generate?
$110 million
$120 million
$130 million
$140 million
$150 million
Solution -
if fixed + x% of 100m = 32
and fixed + x% of 60m = 24
so the difference is 100 - 60 = 40 million one earns (32-24) = 8 million
hence 32+8 = 40 million and amt is 100+40 =140 million
that's how is solved it but it can be fluke..is my approach correct
