25*4 =100 so if 25% is one of 4 parts of 100% than 36: 3 is 12 so that means that 12 is one of 3 parts of 36. So just add 12 to 36 to make it 4 parts 36+12=48 so originally they were 48$

Let

x-------> the original price of the bed sheets

we know that

Nancy purchased some bed sheets for $ $36$ they were on sale $25$ % off

$100$ %- $25$ %= $75$ %

$75$ %= $0.75$

$0.75*x=36\\ x=36/0.75\\ x=48$

therefore

the answer is

the original price of the bed sheets was $ $48$

Answer:197.8

The formula for a cylinder is 3.14*r^2*h but if you don't round to the nearest tenth the the answer is 197.82034.

Step-by-step explanation:Step one mutiply 3^2=9, Step two mutiply 3.14*

9=28.26, Step three mutiply 28.26*7=197.82.But if you round 197.82034 to the nearest tenth which is moving one decimal place to the right you'll will get 197.8.

The perimeter of a rectangular field is 328 yards. If the length of the field is 89 yards, what is its width?

miv72 [106K]

<u>Set up an equation based on the information given</u>

$89 + 89 + x + x = 328$

<u>Combine like terms</u>

$89 + 89 = 178$

$x + x = 2x$

$2x + 178 = 328$

<u>Solve</u>

$2x + 178 = 328$

$328 - 178 = 150$

$2x = 150$

$x = 75$

Answer

The width of the rectangular field is 75 yards.

We have a shape that has an area of 112 inches squared. Convert the units to centimeters squared. (HINT: Perform multiple conver

Andre45 [30]

<h3>Answer: 722.5792 square centimeters</h3>

Work Shown:

$112 \text{ in}^2 = 112 \text{ in}^2 \times \frac{2.54 \text{ cm}}{1 \text{ in}} \times \frac{2.54 \text{ cm}}{1 \text{ in}}\\\\112 \text{ in}^2 = (112 \times 2.54 \times 2.54) \text{ cm}^2\\\\112 \text{ in}^2 = 112 \times (2.54)^2 \text{ cm}^2\\\\112 \text{ in}^2 = 722.5792 \text{ cm}^2\\\\$

Notes:

1 inch = 2.54 cm exactly
The conversion factor $\frac{2.54 \text{ cm}}{1 \text{ in}}$ is used to convert from inches to cm. The inches unit in the denominator cancels with one of the inches unit from the original 112 square inches figure.
We use two identical copies of the same conversion factor to convert from square inches to square centimeters. This is the "multple conversion" your teacher is referring to.
Think of "square inches", aka $\text{in}^2$ , as "inches times inches". Or think of a 1 inch by 1 inch square that has an area of 1 square inch. The same applies for the square centimeter unit as well.
