The number is 90.

<h3>What is the number?</h3>

Percentage can be described as the fraction of an amount that is expressed as a number out of hundred. The sign used to represent percentage is %. Percentages are a measure of frequency.

When the number is decreased, the number becomes smaller. This means that the original number is larger than 81.

The equation that can be used to represent the information in the question is:

(1 - percentage decrease) initial number = 81

(1 - 0.1)x = 81

0.9x = 81

x = 81 / 0.9

x = 90

Evaluate 3/7r + 5/8s when r = 14 and s = 8
emmasim [6.3K]

\frac{3}{7}*r + \frac{5}{8} *s

let us first plug the values of r and s here

r=14 and s=8

\frac{3}{7}*14 + \frac{5}{8} *8

Now here we can cancel 14 and 7 as 7*2 =14 , also we can cancel 8 and 8 as 8*1 is 8, so our simplified new form is:

\frac{3}{1}*2 + \frac{5}{1} *1

Now we can multiply 3*2 and 5*1

3*2 =6

5*1=5

Next we add the two numbers

6+5 =11

So this is how we get the answer 11
