<u>Answer</u>
40%
<u>Explanation</u>
A parentage value is a value that has been compared to 100.
Percentage = (change in the value)/(the original value) × 100%
= (35-25)/25 × 100%
= 10/25 × 100%
= 40%
In monetary terms, you're making change. If you need more ones, you trade one 10 for 10 ones.
When I was in school, many years ago, we used small superscript-type numbers to show this:
7 3 0 ⇒ 7 2 ¹0 . . . . regrouping to gain 10 ones
7 2 ¹0 ⇒ 6 ¹2 ¹0 . . .regrouping again to gain 10 more tens
You'd have to look at the example problems that precede this page in order to see what the meaning of "magnifying glass" is.
3(7v-5)-v(10v-9) = 21v - 15 -10v² + 9v = - 10v² + 30v - 15
The answer is 7.3. Hope that helps.
