1. 7% can also be written as .07
2. To figure out what 7% of 24.50 is than you need to multiple 24.50*.07.
3. 24.50*.07 = 1.715 or $1.72
4. Another way to think about this is as follows:
X/24.50= 7/100 and solve for X
24.50*7 =100x
171.50 =100x
171.50/100=x
1.715 =X
24.50*.07= 1.715 or $1.72

The lines on a 2-cup liquid measuring cup divide each cup into eighths If you measure 1 3/4 cups of water between which two quan
sasho [114]

Answer:

The line between 1 5/8 and 1 7/8 is exactly 1 3/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 3/4 = 1 6/8

Since the lines are every 1/8 of a cup, there are a total of 16 lines indicating 1/8 of a cup for a total of two full cups.

1/8 less than 1 6/8 is 1 5/8.

1/8 more than 1 6/8 is 1 7/8.

The line between 1 5/8 and 1 7/8 is exactly 1 3/4.

the area of a gymnasium floor is 264 square yard. the floor is 11 yards wide . how long is the floor?
Alekssandra [29.7K]
Area = Length x Width (A = L x W)

A = 264, W = 11, L = ?

Rewrite the equation to find L. In order to reverse multiplication, you must divide.

L = A / W

L = 264 / 11 = 24 yards
