25% = $120

Find 1%

1% = 120 ÷ 25 = $4.80

Find 100% (original price):

100% = 4.8 x 100 = $480

Remaining price to pay:

$480 - $120 = $360

Answer: $360

If 25% = 120
if 25 is multiplied by 4 to become 100(%) if we multiply 120 with 4, the answer should be the original cost.
480 is the original cost but since 120 is already paid, the final answer should be 360.

Which statement is correct?

Arisa [49]

Answer:

$2.06 \times 10^-^2 = 206$

$1.88 \times 10^-^1 = 18.8$

$206 \times 18.8 = 3,872.8$

$7.69 \times 10^-^2 = 769$

$2.3 \times 10^-^5 = 230,000$

$=\frac{769}{230000}$

= 0.00334

therefore,

3,872.80 > 0.00334

Step-by-step explanation:

Which statement is correct?

(2.06x102x1.88 x 10-1) <7.69x 10

2.3x10-5

(2.06 x 10-2)(1.88 x 10-1) 7.69x 10-

2.3x10-5

7.69 x 10"

(2.06 x 10-2x1.88x10-)>

2.3x10-5

(2.06x 10-2X(1.88x 10-1)-7.69x104

2.3x10-5

Given that;

$2.06 \times 10^-^2 = 206$

$1.88 \times 10^-^1 = 18.8$

$206 \times 18.8 = 3,872.8$

$7.69 \times 10^-^2 = 769$

$2.3 \times 10^-^5 = 230,000$

$=\frac{769}{230000}$

= 0.00334

therefore,

3,872.80 > 0.00334

marta [7]

Answer:

One rose bush = $3

One bunch of ornamental grass = $4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a system of equations to solve for this. Let cost of 1 rose bush be r and cost of 1 ornamental grass be g. Thus we can form 2 equations:

$14r+7g=70\\5r+14g=71$
