Hello! i can do the first word problem
first we need to divide 600/3 which is 200.
therefore we can infer that he does 200 letters an hour and we can solve the problem with this
200 x 7 = 1400 letters an hour
You would divide miles to hours amd get 57.5
Answer:
...........the answer is 7?!
P-0.40p = 0.60p
C. Decrease by 40% is the same as multiply by 60%.
Assume that p = 10
10 - 0.40(10) = 0.60(10)
10 - 4 = 6
6 = 6
Based on the above assumption. 40% of 10 is 4 ; and 60% of 10 is 6. So, 10 less 4(40% of 10) is equal to 6 (60% of 10).
Percentage is used because 0.40 and 0.60 will be multiplied with 100% to get the equivalent percentage 0.40 x 100% = 40% ; 0.60 x 100% = 60%
