Answer:
% of yellow pages = 29.787%

Explanation:
% of yellow pages = [tex] \frac{cost of yellow pages}{total cost} * 100[/tex]

We have:
cost of yellow pages = $700
Total cost = 600 + 650 + 700 + 400 = $2350

% of yellow pages = [tex] \frac{700}{2350} *100[/tex]
% of yellow pages = 29.787%

Hope this helps :)
