A restaurant has 50 tables. 40% of the tables have 2 chairs at each table. The remaining 60% of the tables have 4 chairs at each
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Total number of chairs in the restaurant = 160.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of tables in the restaurant = 50

It is given that 40% of the tables have 2 chairs at each table.

40% of 50 = \frac{40}{100} (50)

= 20

So, 20 tables have 2 chairs at each table.

Number of chairs required for 20 tables = 20 × 2 = 40

Remaining 60% of the tables have 4 chairs at each table.

60% of 50 = \frac{60}{100} (50)

= 30

So, 30 tables have 4 chairs at each table.

Number of chairs required for 30 tables = 30 × 4 = 120

Hence, total number of chairs in the restaurant = 40 + 120 = 160.

8.1 = 0.9a, how do you solve?
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

a = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

8.1 = 0.9a

Solving

8.1 = 0.9a

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-0.9a' to each side of the equation.

8.1 + -0.9a = 0.9a + -0.9a

Combine like terms: 0.9a + -0.9a = 0.0

8.1 + -0.9a = 0.0

Add '-8.1' to each side of the equation.

8.1 + -8.1 + -0.9a = 0.0 + -8.1

Combine like terms: 8.1 + -8.1 = 0.0

0.0 + -0.9a = 0.0 + -8.1

-0.9a = 0.0 + -8.1

Combine like terms: 0.0 + -8.1 = -8.1

-0.9a = -8.1

Divide each side by '-0.9'.

a = 9

Simplifying

a = 9

Write a problem involving how much more Than and solve it. Explain how drawing a diagram helped you solve the problem
avanturin [10]
A very simple example problem to satisfy the required above is,
"John has 8 apples and 17 oranges. How much more oranges does John has than apple?"

To answer this item, one needs to subtract the number of apples from the number of oranges. This is as shown below,
     D = 17 - 8 = 9

The concept of "how much more than" is linked to finding the difference between the numbers.

After spending 30% of her salary Sara was able to deposit $120 in the bank. What is her salary?
Katena32 [7]

Answer: $400

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you set it up in a equation. You put the amount she put in the bank over x (the x represents her full salary) which equals the percent she already spent over her full salary. That would be 120/x=30/100 you would then cross-multiply to get 12,000 = 30x. you then divide 30 from both sides to get x =400.
