X = 8% * 85
x = 8/100 * 85
x = 0.08 * 85
Multiply 0.08 and 85.
x = 6.8
6.8 is 8%<span> of 85.</span>

Answer:
Dimensions : 37.5 * 12.5
length : 37.5
width : 12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
let x = length and y = width
x = 3y based on info from problem
Perimeter = 2(length + width)
100 = 2(x + y)
substitute 3y for x
100 = 2(3y + y)
100 = 2(4y)
100 = 8y
y = 12.5
x = 3(12.5) = 37.5
Answer:
500
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the original price
Take the first discount
x - 18 percent
x - .18x = new price
x( 1-.18)
x ( .82) = new price
Now we take a 20 percent discount
This is on the discounted price, use .82x
.82x - 20 percent= 2nd discounted price
.82x - .20(.82x)
.82x -.164x
.656x= 2nd discounted price
.656x = 328
Divide each side by.656
.656x/.656 = 328/.656
x =500
The original price was 500
B)7:8 is the answer because:
16 total - 7 green = 8 and so
