Answer:
10 pizzas
Step-by-step explanation:
Jaxson is throwing a pizza party. He has 1\tfrac{1}{4}1 4 1 pounds of cheese available and he needs \tfrac{1}{8} 8 1 pound of cheese to make each pizza. How many pizzas can he make?
We can interprete the above question as:
1/8 pounds of cheese = 1 pizza
1 1/4 pounds of cheese = x pizzas
Cross Multiply
1/8 × x = 1 1/4 × 1
x = 1 1/4 ÷ 1/8
x = 5/4 ÷ 1/8
x = 5/4 × 8/1
x = 10 pizzas
x = 10 pizzas
Answer:
60%
Step-by-step explanation:
If I get you right, you're asking for the percentage gain to the nearest percentage, right?
Now to do this, we need to get the amount of profit she made. That's quite easy, we only need to subtract the cost price from the selling price. And that equals $15 - $9.38 that equals $5.62.
Now, we divide this value by the cost price and multiply by 100% to get the percentage gain.
I.e 5.62/9.38 × 100%.
That gives 59.9% , which equals 60% when approximated to the nearest percentage.
