Answer:
last one
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
56
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two ways the answer to this question can be determined
<u><em>Method 1 : the fast method </em></u>
We know that 8 is twice 4
4 x 2 = 8
The ratio of diet soda = 8
the ratio of regular sodas = 4
Diet sodas = 112
the number of regular sodas = 112 / 2 = 56
<u><em>Method 2 : The long method </em></u>
I would first determine the total number of diet and regular sodas. Let the total number be represented by d
from the question, the following equation can be derived :
(8/12) x d = 112
divide both sides of the equation by 12/8 to determine the value of d
d = 112 x (12/8) = 168
We can now derive a value for the number of regular soda
regular sodas = ( ratio of regular sodas / total soda) x total number of sodas
(4/12) x 168 = 56
Add the ratios 3:1 = 4
divide perimeter 128 by 4 = 32
multiply this by each ratio so 3:1 becomes 96length:32width
remember there are two lengths and two widths in the perimeter so divide by 2 to find the length = 48
SOLUTION:
We are to find the rate of inflation in the given question;
The formula to be used is;
Inflation rate =
CONCLUSION
The inflation rate of CPI that increased from 208 to 221 to the nearest tenth of a percentage is 6.3%.
