Answer:

I beleive the answer is $9000

Step-by-step explanation: What is 18% of 50000?

Y is 18% of 50000

Equation: Y = P% * X

Solving our equation for Y

Y = P% * X

Y = 18% * 50000

Converting percent to decimal:

p = 18%/100 = 0.18

Y = 0.18 * 50000

Y = 9000

9000 is how much is taken off, just take 18% of 50000=9000
50000-9000=41,000.
After 18% is taken off it’s $41,000
It asked for how much the gold would be worth not how much is taken off.
