Let's assign a variable that is the number when multiplied by 10% it is equal to 0.1.
Well let that be x.
Now we want to convert the 10% into a decimal. To convert a percent into a decimal, simply move the % sign two places to the left and make it into a decimal point.
When we say "of" in mathematics what we really mean is to multiply.
0.10 * x = 0.1
That is the equation we need to find the value of x for.
Divide both sides by 0.10
0.10 * x = 0.1
The 0.10 on the left side cancels out.
x = 1
So, the answer to this question is if we multiply 10% by 1 we will get 0.1.
It would be 40.
60 minus 20 = 40
Difference means subtraction
Answer:
To simply or reduce fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by a number they are both divisible by.
Example:
3/12 both numbers are divisible by 3 do divide it and it becomes 1/4
Suppose y varies inversely with x and that y=2 when x=8 What is an equation for this inverse variation?
B. y= 2/8x
