Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the first day he used 30 cups
the second day he used 15% of the remaining cups...a total of 90 cups were used on second day.
so 15%of the remaining cups = 90.....so if u let x be the total cups, then the remaining cups would be x - 30
15% of (x - 30) = 90.....turn ur percent to a decimal..." of " means multiply
0.15(x - 30) = 90
0.15x - 4.5 = 90
0.15x = 90 + 4.5
0.15x = 94.5
x = 94.5 / 0.15
x = 630 total cups <==
lets check..
start with 630 cups....used 30 the first day....leaving u with 600 cups....15% of the remaining cups = 90.....so 15% of 600 = 90....lets check it
15%of 600 = 0.15(600) = 90...yep, thats correct....there were 630 cups in the new un-opened box
Answer:
Multiplication
Step-by-step explanation:
Follow GEMDAS or PEMDAS. I would recommend GEMDAS. GEMDAS stands for Grouping symbols, exponents, multiply, divide, addition, subtraction. GO form the order G to S
You would move the decimal point two times to the left for the decimal. 0.076
For the fraction, we would make it 76/1000 because the 6 converted in the decimal is in the thousandth place. We can simplify it and get 19/250.
