Well to do this, we need to know the least common multiple (LCM) of 6 and 8. Lets list the factors out.
6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36
8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48
As we can see, the least common multiple of 6 and 8 is 24.
Now we know that there are 8 plates per package and 8 goes into 24 3 times, so naturally Shaniya needs 3 packages of plates
Hope this helped!!! :)
I believe this is right
Move the decimal over two places so so it becomes .28
Then divide 448 by .28
Which is equaled to 1600
Move the decimal over two places so 24% becomes .24
Then multiply .24 by 1600
And the answer is 384
(Might be wrong sorry)
Multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator
So 8 x 9=72 5x6=30
So the answer is 72/30 Simplified is 12/5
Answer: The correct answer is a 25% discount.
Step-by-step explanation: In order to calculate the percentage discount you need to first calculate the amount of the discount. This is done by subtracting the two numbers. $72 - $54 = $18. The amount of the discount is $18.
Next, you need to calculate what percentage the discount is of the original price. This is done by dividing the discount amount by the original price.
$18/$72 = 25%
This answer is the percentage discount.
