If the price of an item has been reduced by 65%, that means that it used to be 35% higher, and that is the number we have to use in the equation. Here it is:
x - price
35% - how much it got discounted
60 - new price
100% - total percentage

x : 35 = 60 : 100
100x = 60*35 (crossover multiplication)
100x = 2100
x = 2100 / 100
x = 21

The price of the item now is 21$. 


Or you can do it this way:
65% of $60 = 0.65 of 60 = 39; 60 - 39 (how much it was discounted) = 21 (the new price)

a gas company in massachusetts charges $1.30 for 16.7 ft3 of natural gas. convert this rate to dollars per liter of gas
Katyanochek1 [597]

By using a change of units, we can see that the rate in dollars per liter is:

R = $0.0027 per liter.

<h3>How to convert the rate?</h3>

Here we have a rate in dollars per cubic foot, and we want to rewrite this in dollars per liter. So we just need to apply a change of units.

The original rate is in dollars per square foot, and it is given by:

R = $1.30 for 16.7ft^3

We know that the relation between cubic feet and liters is:

1ft^3 = 28.32 L

Then, if we apply a change of units, we can rewrite the volume as:

16.7ft^3 = 16.7*(28.32) L = 472.9 L

Then the rate is $1.30 per 472.9 L, taking the quotient we get:

R = ($1.30/472.9 L) = $0.0027 per liter.
