50% =
0.5 =
50/100 =
1/2
This cannot be written as an improper fraction
The trick with answering your 10s, 100s, 1000s, etc, is just adding zeroes onto the ends of the first number. So, since this is 14 times 1000, you would add 3 zeroes onto 14. So your answer is 14,000. Hope this helped!
Lets call x the amount of 18% solution and y the amount of 40% solution, and write as equations the info of the problem:
18x + 40y = 10(20)
x + y = 10
lets multiply the second equation by -18 and add to the first:
18x + 40y = 200
-18x -<span> 18y = -180
</span>----------------------
0 + 22y = 20
y = 20/22 = 10/11
and substitute in the original equation:
x <span>+ y = 10
</span>x = 10 - y
x = 10 - 10/11
x = 110/11 - 10/11
x = 100/11
so they have to use 100/11 liters of 18% solution and 10/11 liters of 40% solution
Step-by-step explanation:
- 0.06
- 60%
- 2/3
- 3/4
hope it's right :)
