Find each percent increase round to the nearest percent from 86 books to 150 books

1 answer:

3 0

From 86 books to 150 books. An increase of 64 books.

(150 - 86) / 86 = 64 / 86 = 0.744 * 100% = 74.40% or 74% increase

150 / 86 = 1.744 * 100% = 174.40%

86 is the basis. It is 100%

If the problem asks for the value of the percentage increase and the rate is given 74.4% of 86. Then 86 * 74.4% = 64. You just add 64 to 86 to get the new total of books which is 150.

By using a number line, arrange each of the each of the following in descending order (a) 4 29upon 33, -2.365,5.5,-3 upon 4 (b)

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

The arrangement of the numbers in descending order (largest to smallest) are as follows;

a). 5.5, 4, 29/33, -3/4, -2.365
b). 10, 5.855, 5/8, 1/2 -2π, -8

<h3>What is the arrangement of the numbers in descending order in each case?</h3>

It follows from convention that the positive numbers are larger than negative numbers and hence, should appear before negative numbers when the arrangement is in descending order.

Consequently, the numbers can be evaluated and arranged as in the answer above with positive numbers increasing rightwards and negative numbers decreasing leftward of 0 on the number line.
