We must find the difference between prices. $2.65 - $2.50 = $0.15. Now we need to calculate what percent $0.15 is of $2.65. It is 5.7%! The price decreased, so it is a 5.7% decrease!

Colin has a pad with x pieces of paper on it. For his first class, he wrote on 5 fewer than half of the pieces of paper in the p
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Colin has <em>8 sheets </em>left for his third class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total Number of pieces of papers = x

Number of pieces of papers used for 1st class = 5 fewer than half of the pieces in the pad

Writing the equation:

\text{Number of pieces of papers used for 1st class =} \dfrac{x}{2} -5 ...... (1)

Also, Given that number of pieces of papers used for the 2nd class are 2 more than that of papers used in the 1st class.

\text{Number of pieces of papers used for 2nd class =} \dfrac{x}{2} -5+2 = \dfrac{x}2 -3 ...... (2)

Now, number of pieces of papers left for the third class = Total number of pieces of papers in the pad - Number of pieces of papers used in the first class - Number of pieces of papers used in the first class

\text{number of pieces of papers left for the third class = }x-(\dfrac{x}{2}-5)-(\dfrac{x}{2}-3)\\\Rightarrow x-\dfrac{x}2-\dfrac{x}2+5+3\\\Rightarrow x-x+5+3\\\Rightarrow 8

So, the answer is:

Colin has <em>8</em> <em>sheets </em>left for his third class.
