Let us assume the cost of the camera at the photography store = $x.

We are given $126 is 2/3 of the price that a photography store charges.

Let us repharse above statement "$126 is 2/3 of the store price x".

Let us convert above statement in an equation now.

126 = 2/3 of x.

126 = 2/3 x.

Dividing both sides by 2/3, we get

126 ÷ 2/3 =2/3 x ÷ 2/3.

126 × 3/2 = x

378/2 =x.

x= 189.

Therefore, the cost of the camera at the photography store is $189.

The length of a rectangle is 2 feet more than 5 its width. The perimeter is 52 feet. Find the dimension of the rectangle
Ber [7]

Answer: The length is 22 feet. The width is 4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation: Create an equation for the length: 2+5w=52.

Now combine the two sides to get 4+10w=52. Plug in some numbers that seem reasonable. I started with 4, checked my work and found that it was right. This problem is all about trial and error.

So, 4+10(4)= 44. Make sure to remember the width, so add 4 for each side: 44+8. 44+8=52. Hope this helps :)

Notebooks cost $1.20 each. This weekend they will be $.80 What percentage is the sale?
geniusboy [140]
The sale is 33% off notebooks. This can be found by first subtracting .8 from 1.2

1.2-.8=.4    Now divide .4 by 1.2 to get your answer.

\frac{.4}{1.2}=.33

.33=33%

You can also solve this mentally because if you know your basic multiplication tables, 3*4=12 and so \frac{2}{3} of 12 would equal 8.

Does you understand it now?
