What is 90 decreased by 40%?

1 answer:

8 0

Because it's decreasing, you use the formula (1-x/100)y with x the percentage decreased which is here 40, and y the number decreased which is here 90
So we get
(1-40/100) * 90
(100/100 - 40/100) * 90
60/100 * 90
5400/100
54
So 90 decreased by 40% is 54
Hope this Helps :)

Find the greatest common factor of 15x2y3 and -18x3yz.

For this case we have that by definition, the GFC (greatest common factor) of two numbers is given by the greater number that is a factor of both numbers. Then, let:

$15x ^ 2y ^ 3\\-18x ^ 3yz$
