Answer:

A. 37.5% less than B

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write an equation to model this:

B being 60% more than A means that:

B=0.6A+1A

B=1.6A

Let's isolate A.

A=B/1.6

Multiply the top and bottom by 10 to get whole numbers

A=10B/16

Simplify

A=5B/8

5/8 = 62.5%

A=0.625B

Therefore, A is 62.5% of B

This means that A is 37.5% less than B.

Answer:

<u>37.5% less than B</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that B is 60% more than A.

  • A (160%) = B
  • A = B / (160%)
  • A = B / (8/5)
  • A = 5B/8
  • A = 0.625B
  • A = (62.5%) B

Since A is 62.5% of B, it is <u>37.5% less than B</u>.

A student said that since –9 is less than 4, then |–9| is less than |4|. Is the student correct? Explain why or why not
Leno4ka [110]
The student is not correct.

Absolute value means distance from zero
|-9| = 9
|4| = 4

Since 9 is greater than 4,
|-9| is greater than |4|

In other words, -9 is further from zero then 4
