Firstly, you must divide the subject total by 100. This will give you 1% of your subject. For example, if you are working out 10% of 4,500, divide 4,500 by 100 and you will have worked out 1% of 4,500---in this case, 45. Multiply your 1% answer by the percentage you wish to find out.

It would be 2 silly because 3-3=0 and 0 x 6=0 and 0 + 2 = 2 so that is the answer 2

An office manager spent $4870 on a

Andrews [41]

Answer:

6 chairs

8 desks

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we assume that all 14 items he bought were chairs, if that was to be true then the office manager would spend...

125 x 14 = 1750$

We see that he spent less then he should have so now we start to substitute desks instead of chairs, and we have to keep in mind that if we change 1 chair to a desk then the total will increase by...

515 - 125 = 390$

Now we just find the difference between the needed total and the total that we get if the office manager would by only chairs and then divide the result by 390 in order to find the number of desks, and so we get...

(4870 - 1750) / 390 = 3120 / 390 = 8 desks

And now that we know the number of desks we just subtract the number of desks from 14 and get the number of chairs, and so...

14 - 8 = 6 chairs

How do you Simplify this expression in algebra?<br><br> 9x + 2x (5 + 4) - 2(5x + 4x)

One can solve this by first using order of operations, and then combining like terms.

First is parenthesis

9x + 2x(9) - 2(9x)

Now we do the multiplication

9x + 18x - 18x
