Amagazine has 172,500 subscribers. the records of the magazine show that each year 12% of readers fail to renew subscriptions, how many readers can the magazine expect to lose this year?

20,700 readers.

Step-by-step explanation:

When looking for a percent of a number always put a decimal two spots to the left of the percentage number.   Example: 12% turns into .12   Then take the number of something your trying to break down and times that by the .12

Example: 172,500 × .12 = 20,700

3 4 7 12 19

+1 +3 +5 +6

i would guess 26 because this isnt a sequential pattern or its to short to know
