Answer:
He has driven 16 miles so far
Step-by-step explanation:
The unknown in your equation is the total length of Trey's drive, which we will call "x".
From the problem statement, you know that 12 is three-fourths of x so set up the following equation and solve for "x":
3/4(x) = 12
multiply both sides of the equation by 4/3 to isolate "x":
(4/3)(3/4)(x) = (12)(4/3)
therefore
x = (12)(4)/(3) = 16
Because there was a pay rise, we can write the equation as x+0.04x = 24.492 and solve for x.
x+0.04x = 24.492
1.04x = 24.492
x=23.55
His original pay was £23.55
Answer:
3/8 + 1/4 is 5/8 and 1/10+4/5 is 1
Step-by-step explanation:
convert 1/4 to 2/8 and add to 3/8 to get 5/8
convert 4/5 to 9/10 and add to 1/10 equals 10/10 which is also 1
$0.00995 is the correct answer.
$3.98/400=0.00995
Answer:
290
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem you multiply 29 by 100 and then divide the total by 10 as follows:
(29 x 100) / 10
Therefore, you can derive that 10 percent of 290 equals 29.
Note that the answer provided is rounded to the nearest two decimals if necessary.
