23/103 = 0.22
0.22*100 = 22%
The percentage increase is 22%
Hope that helps!
Answer (the system of equations input doesn't work, so there is no brace):
x = 1.5y
x + y =800
Step-by-step explanation:
First, identify the vital information:
- 800 total students
- 1.5 times as many boys as girls
So, if x = number of boys and y = number of girls, we can agree that:
x = 1.5y
And because there are 800 kids in total, we can agree that:
x + y = 800
There are 320 girls and 480 boys. (see below)
Since you have the value of x, 1.5y, you can plug-in the value:
x + y = 800
1.5 + y = 800
2.5y = 800
y = 320 girls
Plug-in the y-value into the equation for the number of boys:
x = 1.5y
x = 1.5(320)
x = 480 boys
To double-check:
320 + 480 = 800 ☺
Let us first concentrate on the information’s
that are already given in the question. Based on those information’s the answer
to the question can be easily found.
Bill amount for Mr. Johnson before sales tax = $725
Percentage of sales tax taken = 6%
Then
Amount of sales tax = (6/100) * 725
= 4350/100 dollars
= 43.5 dollars
So the amount of sales tax that had to be given is $43.5.
