The answer is $0.55

$8.50 is 100%.
x is 6.5%

8.50 : 100% = x : 6.5%
x = 8.50 : 100% * 6.5%
x = 0.5525
x ≈ $0.55

Please help!!!!!!! im so confused lol
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

a : c = 7 : 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The two ratios (a : b and b : c) both have b in common, so to work out what a : c is, we can use b to 'bridge' the two ratios together.

However, in a : b, b is 4. But in b : c, b is 2. We need to make sure b is the same in both ratios before we can combine the ratios together. The easiest way to do this is to multiply b : c by 2 to get b : c = 4 : 10. Now b is 4 in both ratios.

So now, we can combine the two ratios together to get a : b : c = 7 : 4 : 10. Since we only want a : c though, we can just drop the b and get a : c = 7 : 10. No simplifying is necessary since the ratio is already in its simplest form.

Hope that helps! :)
