A band expects to put 15 songs on their next CD. The band writes and records 20% more songs than
they expect to put on the CD. During the editing process, 50% of the songs are removed. How many
songs will there be on the final CD?
There will be songs on the final CD.

The band writes and records 20% more songs than they expected to put on CD (they expected to put 15 on CD) , hence 3 more songs since 20% of 15 is 3 (= 15 × 0.20). A total of 18 songs is recorded.

During editing, 50% of the songs are removed, that is 9 (= 18 × 0.50).

Therefore, only 9 songs are left on CD (= 18 - 9)
