The pie chart below shows the distribution of a regional health network's total annual operating budget of $50,000,000\$50,000,000 among four divisions in 2025: Inpatient Care (40%40\%), Outpatient Care (25%25\%), Surgical Services (20%20\%), and Medical Research (15%15\%). The accompanying table details the breakdown of expenditures within the Medical Research division into three categories: Personnel (50%50\%), Equipment (30%30\%), and Operational Overhead (20%20\%). How much greater is the total dollar amount allocated to Surgical Services than the combined dollar amount allocated to Equipment and Operational Overhead within Medical Research?

Cevap

The total dollar amount allocated to Surgical Services is $6,250,000 greater than the combined allocation for Equipment and Operational Overhead within Medical Research.
Surgical Services receives 20%20\% of the total $50,000,000\$50,000,000 budget ($10,000,000\$10,000,000). Medical Research receives 15%15\% of $50,000,000\$50,000,000 ($7,500,000\$7,500,000). Equipment (30%30\%) and Operational Overhead (20%20\%) within Medical Research sum to 50%50\% of the Medical Research budget, which equals 0.50×$7,500,000=$3,750,0000.50 \times \$7,500,000 = \$3,750,000. The difference is $10,000,000−$3,750,000=$6,250,000\$10,000,000 - \$3,750,000 = \$6,250,000.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the total dollar amount allocated to Surgical Services.
Surgical Services budget = 20%×$50,000,000=$10,000,00020\% \times \$50,000,000 = \$10,000,000.
Surgical Services constitutes 20 percent of the network's overall budget.
2
Calculate the total dollar amount allocated to the Medical Research division.
Medical Research budget = 15%×$50,000,000=$7,500,00015\% \times \$50,000,000 = \$7,500,000.
Medical Research constitutes 15 percent of the overall budget.
3
Determine the percentage and dollar amount for Equipment and Operational Overhead combined within Medical Research.
Combined percentage = 30%+20%=50%30\% + 20\% = 50\%. Dollar amount = 50%×$7,500,000=$3,750,00050\% \times \$7,500,000 = \$3,750,000.
The sub-table shows Equipment is 30 percent and Overhead is 20 percent of the Medical Research division's total budget.
4
Calculate the difference between the Surgical Services budget and the combined Research Equipment/Overhead budget.
Difference = $10,000,000−$3,750,000=$6,250,000\$10,000,000 - \$3,750,000 = \$6,250,000.
Subtracting the sub-category expenditures from the main division budget gives the required dollar difference.
