Question 3 is D and question 4 is c for what I tell of the pictire
First, Jane must know the volume of the box.
Volume = l * w * h
Volume = 1 * 0.5 * 0.5
Volume = 0.25 yard^3
1 yard^3 = $25
So,
1 : 25 = 0.25 : x
x = 25 * 0.25
x = $6.25
So she need to spend $6.25
9/100 is less because if we multiply 7/10 by 10 (to get an equivalent fraction with a denominator the same as the other fraction [100]) we get 70/100, which is way more than 9/100.
So, 7/10 is greater than 9/100
Hope this helps!
Answer:
2%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the first number
It increases by 70 %
The new number is
m = x+ .70x
= 1.7x
Let y be the second number
It decreases by 40 %
The new number is
n =y - .40 y
= .6y
The product of the original numbers is xy
The product of the new number is
mn = (1.7x * .6y) = 1.02xy
The new number is larger than the old number so it is an increase.
Percent increase is new - original divided by original times 100%
Percent increase = (1.02 xy - xy)
----------------- * 100%
xy
= .02 xy
------- * 100 %
xy
= .02 * 100 %
= 2%
