They sold 187 small bags and 75 large bags.

Two variables L and S (large & small)

We know that L + S = 262  -> the amount of bags sold

We also know that 3L + 1S = $412 -> total money made

L = 262 - S 

Plug that into the second equation:

3(262 - S) + 1S = 412

786 - 3S + 1S = 412

786 - 2S = 412
786 - 412 = 2S
374 = 2S
S = 187
187 small bass and 
So they sold 187 small bags

L = 262 - 187 = 75 

They sold 75 large bags.

A 30cm board is cut down to be 25.5 cm. What is the percent decrease in length?
zmey [24]
Okie, so percent decrease is the amount loss divided by the original number and multiplied by 100 to find the percent. This is because you are finding the amount loss in terms of the total amount - percent basically.
The amount loss : 4 feet
4 feet/ 12 feet = .3333 (ratio of how much cut) multiply by 100 --> 33.3% decrease. From 12 feet to 8 feet is a 33.3 % decrease. I hope this helps :-)
