The raised price represents 110% of the original price (100% plus the extra 10%)

A percentage is converted into a decimal multiplier by dividing by 100:
\frac{110}{100}  = 1.10

To clarify the final stage, consider this (where n is the original price):
n * 1.10 = 192.50
1.10n = 192.50

From here, basic algebraic rules make solving for n easy:
n =  \frac{192.50}{1.10} = 175

Therefore the original price of a ticket was $175

The length of a rectangle is 4 more than twice the width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 104 centimeters, what are the len
qaws [65]

Answer:

Make Width = 'x'

Length = 4 + 2x

Perimeter = 2 x Width + 2 x Length

86 = 2(x) + 2(4 + 2x)

86 = 2x + 8 + 4x

Collect like terms:

2x + 4x = 86 - 8

6x = 78

x = 13

Width = 13 cm

Length = 30 cm

Jane has read 108 pages from a book. Kevin is reading the same book and has 80 pages left to read. If there are 200 pages in the
Burka [1]
Jane has read 108 pages, which leaves 92 pages to read (200 - 108). That is 92/200, which simplifies to 46/100 = 46%. Kevin has 80 pages left, which is 80/200, which simplifies to 40/100 = 40%. Therefore, Jane has got to read 6% more pages, which however is not on here. This could be a mistake in the question.
