If the baker made 5 pounds of icing and used 4/9 of the icing to make decorations, then he used:
5 * 4/9 =
= 20/9 =
= 2 2/9 [of icing]
To find out how much he has left over, we just need to substract 2 2/9 from 5:
5 - 2 2/9 =
= 3 - 2/9 =
= 2 7/9
Answer: The baker has <u>2 7/9</u> of the icing left.
If he made 25 percent profit, the selling price (1200 naira) is 125 percent.
If 125% is equal to 1200 naira
100 percent (the original) will be 100 × 1200 divided by 125
Which is 120000 ÷ 125
Therefore, the cost price is 960 naira

Answer:
120 people voted against building the new basketball court.
Step-by-step explanation:
if you divide 200 by 100 then you know how many people equal 1 percent of the 200. knowing that for every 2 people they are equal to 1 percent. so if you do 100 -40 you get 60. the 100 represents the 100 percent and you subtract 40 because these are the people who are voting for the basketball court. The 60 represents the percent of people who are voting against building the basketball court. then you multiply 60 by 2 and you get 120.
