an art dealer makes a 17.5% commission on every painting sold. If a painting sold for $1500, what was the commission

1 answer:

4 0

A percentage is a number out of 100. So, 17.5% is really 17.5/100, or 0.175.

To find 17.5% of 1500, you multiply 1500 by 0.175

1500 x 0.175 = 262.5.

The commission is $262.50.

The quotient 250/5/8 tells about how far a sloth may move in one hour. How far can a sloth go in 90 minutes?

VladimirAG [237]

$Answer: \text{Sloth covers }9\frac{3}{8}\text{in 90 minutes.}$

Explanation :

Since we have given that

$\text{in 1 hour sloth may move = }\frac{250}{5\times 8}$

$\text{ In 60 minutes , sloth may move = }\frac{25}{4}$

$\text{ In 1 minute, it may move = }\frac{25}{4\times 60}\\\\\text{ In 1 minute, it may move = }\frac{5}{48}$

$\text{ In 90 minutes, it may move}\\=\frac{5\times 90}{48}\\ \\=\frac{75}{8}\\\\=9\frac{3}{8}$

∴ $\text{Sloth covers }9\frac{3}{8}\text{in 90 minutes.}$
