It is important to do the
calculations very carefully. Otherwise there is nothing complicated about this
problem.
Let us assume the unknown number = x
Then
40x/100 = 55
40x = 55 * 100
40x = 5500
x = 5500/40
= 550/4
= 137.5
So
55 is 40% of 137.50. I hope the procedure is clear to you and in future
you can solve such problems on your own without requiring any help from
outside.This is the simplest way of solving such
problems.
For my answer, I got -47 1/2
Answer:
3 t-shirts
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Lets recap the information we will use from this problem:</u>
The ticket to the festival costs $87.96
T-shirts are $30.00
She is taking $200.00 to the festival
Now we can solve. First we will subtract the price of the ticket from the total amount of money she has.
$200.00 - $87.96 = $112.04
Now that she has payed for the ticket, we want to find out how many shirts she can buy with the remainder of her money. To find this, we will set up an equation like this:
(Amount of money left) ÷ (Cost of 1 t-shirt) = (How many t-shirts she can buy)
Insert your numbers: $112.04 ÷ $30.00 = 3.73466666667
Because she cant buy a fraction of a t-shirt, we ignore the decimals on the end of this number. Therefore, Staci can purchase 3 t-shirts.
Answer:
The weight of the object is 3 kg.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1:
</u>
Let object weight be x kg.
Now, as per the available data,
3/4 kg + 3/4 (x kg) = x kg
<u>Step 2:
</u>
3/4 (1 + x) = x
1 + x = 4x/3
1 = x (4/3 - 1)
x = 1 / (1/3)
x = 3
Weight of Object is 3 kg.
<u>Step 3:
</u>
Let's check if this value satisfies the first equation.
3/4 + 3/4 x 3 = 3/4 + 9/4 = 12/4 = 3
Hence proved.
I believe that you are doing multiplication with this.
So… 9 x 3.65 = 32.85
Hope this helps. :)
