Alaska is the largest state in the United States and has a surface area of approximately 588,000 square miles. Montana has a surface area that is approximately 25% of the surface area of Alaska. What is the approximate surface area of Montana?

Result

M =  147000 sqm

#### Solution:

$A=588000 \ \text{sqm} \ \\ M=\dfrac{ 25 }{ 100 } \cdot \ A=\dfrac{ 25 }{ 100 } \cdot \ 588000=147000 \ \text{sqm}$
