It is important to do the
calculations very carefully. Otherwise there is nothing complicated about this
problem.
Let us assume the unknown number = x
Then
40x/100 = 55
40x = 55 * 100
40x = 5500
x = 5500/40
= 550/4
= 137.5
So
55 is 40% of 137.50. I hope the procedure is clear to you and in future
you can solve such problems on your own without requiring any help from
outside.This is the simplest way of solving such
problems.
Answer:
Mary's mistake was that she didn't take into account of the power that 10 is raised to; since 2.01 is multiplied by 10 to the 6, it makes 2.01 bigger. You can also expand the number to check:
2 010 000 vs. 4800
= 488000
(real number)
= 4.88 × 105

Step-by-step explanation:
Bob ran the first part of a 12 km race at a speed of 8 kmph. He ran the second part of the
race at 10 kmph. If his total time for the entire race was 1.74 hours, how far did he run in
the first part of the race?
First part :
Total Distance = 12 km
First part Speed = 8kmph
Let distance covered on first part = x
Second part speed = 10kmhr
(8*x)
