Question (7 Marks)

Some creators make videos that are very popular and viewed by many people on video-sharing platforms.Advertisers pay the creators to have their advertisement included in the video.Some viewers prefer to skip advertisements and some prefer to watch the full view. A full view is only counted in earning if the viewer watches the whole advertisement.

A creator uploaded a video and received 623775 views.
The pie chart shows the views of the advertisements.

Question (a) : 1 marks

Determine the number of full views.

▶️Answer/Explanation

Ans:

To determine the number of full views, we need to calculate $20\%$ of the total views, which is $623,775$.

$\text{Number of Full Views} = 20\% \times 623,775$

To find $20\%$ of a number, we multiply the number by 0.20.

$\text{Number of Full Views} = 0.20 \times 623,775$

$\text{Number of Full Views} = 124,755$

Therefore, the number of full views is $124,755$.

Question (b) : 3 marks

Calculate the profit made by the creator.

▶️Answer/Explanation

Ans:

Given:
Number of full views, $N = 124,755$
Fee paid to the video-sharing platform, $F = \$150$
Earnings per 1000 views, $E = \$4$

To calculate the profit, we first need to convert the number of full views to thousands. Let’s denote the number of full views in thousands as $N_{\text{thousands}}$:

$N_{\text{thousands}} = \frac{N}{1000}$

Substituting the given value for $N$:

$N_{\text{thousands}} = \frac{124,755}{1000} = 124.755$

Now, we can calculate the earnings from the full views by multiplying the number of full views in thousands by the earnings per 1000 views:

Earnings from full views = $N_{\text{thousands}} \times E$

Substituting the values:

Earnings from full views = $124.755 \times 4 = \$499.02$

Finally, we can calculate the profit by deducting the platform fee from the earnings:

Profit = Earnings from full views – Fee paid to the platform

Profit $= \$499.02 – \$150$

Profit $= \$349.02$

Therefore, the profit made by the creator is $\$349.02.$
