In a theatre room, there are 4 rows of chairs. There are 4 columns of chairs. How many chairs are there in the theatre room?
4x4=16
There are 16 chairs in the theatre room.
Answer:
x = 4 - 1 = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
2(4 - y) + 3y = 9
8 - 2y + 3y =9
8 + y = 9
y = 1
Let the number be x. Then 1.25x = 325, or x = 260.
20% less than 260 is 0.80(260) = 208
Getting the percentage increase, we can form the formula or equation.
Percentage increase = ($1.00 - $0.40) / $0.40 * 100
<span>Percentage increase = ($0.60) / $0.40 * 100
</span><span>Percentage increase = 1.5 * 100
</span><span>Percentage increase = 150%
</span>
So there is a 150% increase from the original price.
