Answer: A. divided the difference of the two quantities by the sum of the two quantities.
===================================================
Explanation:
The difference of the quantities is 20-15 = 5
The sum of the quantities is 20+15 = 35
Dividing those results leads to 5/35 = 0.142857 which rounds to 0.1429
That converts to 14.29%
This is likely the path Adam took. This path is incorrect. The correct steps are shown below
---------------------
Difference = 20-15 = 5
Divide the difference over the original quantity
5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
We have a 25% decrease because the new quantity (15) is smaller than the old quantity (20)
----------------------
Here's another way to approach the problem
A = old value = 20
B = new value = 15
C = percent change
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%
C = [ (15-20)/20 ] * 100%
C = (-5/20)*100%
C = -0.25*100%
C = -25%
The negative C value means we have a negative percent change, ie we have a percent decrease. So this is another way to get a 25% decrease.
You list the multiples of both numbers and see which number they share that is on each table
For example,
3,6,9,(12),15,18,21,(24)
4,8,(12),16,20,(24)
12 is the least common multiple of the numbers 3 and 4
Responder:
La temperatura bajó 12 °
Explicación paso a paso:
Dado que:
Temperatura en la noche = + 2 ° (2
Temperatura de la mañana = - 12 (12 ° bajo cero).
La diferencia de temperatura entre la noche y la madrugada:
Temperatura nocturna - temperatura por la mañana temprano
2 - (-12)
2 + 12 = 14
Hay una diferencia de temperatura de 12 °. La temperatura bajó 12 ° entre la noche y la madrugada.
Why 69 though????????????????????????
