We set up a proportion: 64/?= 32/100

Cross multiply: 32*?= 64*100
⇒ ?= 64*100/32= 200

The number is 200.

If you would like to solve 32% of a number is 64, you can calculate this using the following steps:

32% of a number is 64
32% * x = 64
32/100 * x = 64 /*100/32
x = 64 * 100 / 32
x = 200

Result: 32% of 200 is 64.

UNO [17]

Answer:

40 black ink cartridges and 19 colored ink cartridges

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $b$ represent the number of black printer ink cartridges sold. Let $c$ represent the number of color printer ink cartridges sold.

Set up a system of equations:

$\displaystyle\\\begin{cases}b+c=59\\17.99b+20.99c=1,118.41\end{cases}$

$b+c=59\implies b=59-c$

Substitute:

$\displaystyle\\17.99(59-c)+20.99c=1,118.41\\\implies c=\boxed{19}$

$\implies b+19=59\implies b=\boxed{40}$

⇒ 40 black ink cartridges, 19 colored ink cartridges (ans)

$\dfrac{c^2-4}{6c^4+15c^3}\div\dfrac{c^2+4c+4}{12c^3+30c^2}=\dfrac{c^2-2^2}{3c^3(2c+5)}\div\dfrac{c^2+2(c)(2)+2^2}{6c^2(2c+5)}\\\\_{\text{use}\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\ \text{and}\ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2}\\\\=\dfrac{(c-2)(c+2)}{3c^3(2c+5)}\cdot\dfrac{6c^2(2c+5)}{(c+2)^2}=\dfrac{(c-2)}{c}\cdot\dfrac{2}{(c+2)}=\boxed{\dfrac{2(c-2)}{c(c+2)}}$
