Answer: $787 was originally borrowed.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as
I = PRT/100
Where
I represents interest paid on the loan.
P represents the principal or amount taken as loan
R represents interest rate
T represents the duration of the loan in years.
From the information given,
Total amount = $1181.05
Interest = total amount - principal
I = 1181.05 - P
R = 15%
T = 1 year
Therefore,
1181.05 - P
Therefore,
1181.05 - P = (P × 15 × 1)/100
1181.05 - P = 0.15P
P + 0.15P = 1181.0
1.5P = 1181.05
P = 1181.05/1.5
P = $787
I got 16.8 , but she’ll need roughly 17 gallons of paint :)
how i did it :
1. so you know she’ll need 4/5 per book case, and there are 16 bookcases.
2. So you do 16 x 5, then you get 84
3. and you divide 84 by 5. and you’ll get 16.8, that’s how many gallons of paint she needs
That questions answer depends on the size and composition of the horseshoe
125.40
What is the x 5 for?
The answer is $0.55
$8.50 is 100%.
x is 6.5%
8.50 : 100% = x : 6.5%
x = 8.50 : 100% * 6.5%
x = 0.5525
x ≈ $0.55
