11 and 11/15 is the answer
1. We assume, that the number 92.4 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
<span>2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for. </span>
<span>3. If 92.4 is 100%, so we can write it down as 92.4=100%. </span>
<span>4. We know, that x is 150% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=150%. </span>
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 92.4=100%
2) x=150%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
92.4/x=100%/150%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
7. Solution for what is 150% of 92.4
92.4/x=100/150
<span>(92.4/x)*x=(100/150)*x - </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>92.4=0.666666666667*x - </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (0.666666666667) to get x
<span>92.4/0.666666666667=x </span>
<span>138.6=x </span>
x=138.6
<span>now we have: </span>
<span>150% of 92.4=138.6</span>
Step-by-step explanation:
so, he will not wear any pants ? socks ? not to mention underwear ?
anyway, we have to deduct the $35 for the shoes, as he is seemingly buying them in any case.
so, we are left with 100 - 35 = $65 for shirts.
as one shirt costs $15, we need to see how often 15 fits into 65, as that is the answer how many shirts he can buy for this money.
65 / 15 = 4.333333333...
since he cannot buy a part shirt, we can only rely on the integer part of the calculation.
so, he can buy 4 shirts and will have $5 left.
