It easiest to like take the percentages from each answer choice.
d would be the answer because 40% (25%+15%) of $97.39 is abt $57.37
"a ∝ b" means "a is proportional to b", which in turn means there is some constant k such that
a = kb
We're given that a = 18 and b = 3, so that
18 = 3k ⇒ k = 6
Then when b = 5, we would have
a = 6 × 5 = 30
14 / 45
56 / 100 reduces to 14 / 45
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
30% in a calculator is .3
if you multiply 100 by .3 you get 30
also multiplying a number by a percentage is just taking a percentage of that number. so 30% of 100 is 30.
