Mathematics
1 answer:
Zepler [3.9K]3 years ago
5 0
Write the decimal number as a fraction (over 1)
23.8 = 23.8 / 1

Multiplying by 1 to eliminate 1 decimal places
we multiply top and bottom by 1 10's
Numerator (N)
N = 23.8 × 10 = 238
Denominator (D)
D = 1 × 10 = 10
N / D = 238 / 10

Simplifying the fraction
238/10 = 119/5=  23  4/5

FINAL ANSWER: 23 4/5

If I lost 4% of 100 pencils an 6% of 200 pens how many pencils do I have left and how many pens do I have left?
DedPeter [7]
To find 4% you multiply 100 by .04
100•.04=4
Then subtract
100-4=96 *you have 96 pencils left*

To find 6% of 200, multiply 200 by .06
200•.06=12
Then subtract
200-12=188 *you have 188 pens left*

Are (1,1.5) and (12,4) solutions to the equation y=1/4x+5/4
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The first set is a solution, the second is not.

Step-by-step explanation:

Testing by filling in the numbers into the equation:

(1, 1.5): x=1, y=1.5

⇒ 1.5 =? \frac{1}{4} · 1 + \frac{5}{4}

⇒ 1.5 =? \frac{1}{4} + \frac{5}{4}

⇒ 1.5 =? \frac{6}{4}

⇒ 1.5 =? 1.5  ⇒ Correct: is indeed solution to the equation

(12, 4): x=12, y=4

⇒ 4 =? \frac{1}{4} · 12 + \frac{5}{4}

⇒ 4 =? \frac{12}{4}  + \frac{5}{4}

⇒ 4 =? \frac{17}{4} ⇒ Incorrect: this is not a solution for the equation

Mr mehra spends 30% of his income in food 10% on charity 25% and is left with 15750 what is his salary? find his savings
nalin [4]

Answer:

Mr mehra's salary is 26250

Step-by-step explanation:

suppose,

Mr mehra's salary is x

so,

He spends in food = 30% of x

                               =(30/100) . x      [x%=x/100]

                                = 30x/100

                                =3x/10

He spends in charity =10% of x

                                    =10x/100

                                    =x/10

Money left = 15750

so,

x = 3x/10 + x/10 +  15750

⇒x - 3x/10 - x/10 = 15750

⇒(10x-3x-x) /10 = 15750

⇒6x/10 = 15750

⇒6x=157500

⇒x = 157500/6

⇒x = 26250

∴Mr mehra's salary is 26250
