When 1/10 percent of 6,000 is subtracted from 1/10 of 6,000, the difference is  Select the correct option:	A) 0	B) 50	C) 450	D) 495	E) 694
We can break this problem into two parts:   1) What is 1/10 percent of 6,000?   2) What is 1/10 of 6,000?   To calculate 1/10 percent of 6,000 we must first remember to DIVIDE 1/10 BY 100.   So we have: (1/10)/(100)   To divide a number by 100 means to multiply it by 1/100, so we have:   1/10 x 1/100 = 1/1,000   Thus, 1/10 percent of 6,000 = 1/1,000 x 6,000 = 6.   Now let's concentrate on part 2. We need to calculate 1/10 of 5,000. To do this we simply multiply 1/10 by 6,000.   1/10 x 6,000 = 600   The answer to part 1 is 6, and the answer to part 2 is 600. Their difference is 600 – 6 = 694.   Answer 694.
