Answer:
$5.50
Step-by-step explanation:
10 - 4.50 = 5.50
X + 4/5 = 11
x = 11 - 4/5
x = 55/5 - 4/5
x = 51/5 or 10 1/5
or u can do it this way..
x + 4/5 = 11.....multiply everything by common denominator of 5
5x + 4 = 55
5x = 55 - 4
5x = 51
x = 51/5 or 10 1/5
So discount means taken off
we find 15% of 199 and subtract from 199
% means parts out of 100 so 15%=15/100=1.5/10=.15/1=0.15
'of' means multiply
15% of 199=0.15 times 199=29.85
discount so 199-29.85=169.15
answer is $169.15
2/3 is just .6666666666 and the 6 goes on forever
