First, we can start off with a fraction:

9/36 = 1/4

Now that we have this fraction, we multiply by 25:

25/100

This can be changed into a percent:

25%

100 - 25 = 75

25% is alcohol and 75% is water

Mark save $258 more than Neil. In fact Mark saved $7 for every $4 Neil saved. How much money did Mark say?

olasank [31]

Let

x---------> amount of money saved by Mark

x---------> amount of money saved by Neil

we know that

x=y+258-------> equation 1

x/y=(7/4)-------> equation 2

substitute equation 1 in equation 2

(y+258) /y=7/4--------> 4*(y+258)=7*y------> 4y+1032=7y

7y-4y=1032--------> 3y=1032------> y=$344

x=344+258------>x=$602

the answer is

$602

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

3/6 or 1/2 (50%)

Step-by-step explanation:

There is 6 containers of each flavor, correct?

If you pick 3 of the same flavor, 3/6, it would look like that fraction.

If you simplify it, It'd be 1/2.

If you want it as a percent, It'd be 50%.

As a decimal, It's .50.
