Answer:
8.6%
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the percent change, you will need to compute the positive difference and then divide the difference by the original (the older amount).
So the positive difference will be obtain by doing larger minus smaller:
6300
- 5800
-----------
500
The older amount was 5800.
So 500/5800 is the answer as a un-reduced fraction.
I'm going to reduce it by dividing top and bottom by 100:
500/5800 = 5/58
5/58 is the answer as a reduced fraction.
5 divided by 58 gives=0.086206897 in the calculator .
Approximately 0.0862 is the answer as a decimal.
To convert this to a percentage, multiply it by a 100:
8.62%
Rounded to the nearest tenths is 8.6%
-------------
So 5800+5800(.0862) should be pretty close to 6300 (not exactly though since we rounded).
5800+5800(.0862)=6299.96 using the calculator.
Answer:
5 goes into 18 three times.
Step-by-step explanation:
2 and 3/4 more cups of white flour are used than wheat flour.
5 x 3/4= 3 3/4
3 x 1/3= 1
3 3/4 - 1+ 2 3/4
So you would distribute what's in the parenthesis and end up with 4x-2x-6=x+1, then you combine like terms and end up with 2x-6=x+1, now you can add 6 to both sides or subtract 1 both sides (basically anything goes for this step just make sure you apply the same thing on both sides) so I'll add 6 and continue just to show you... then you end up with 2x=x+7 then you subtract 1x on both sides to get x=7. sorry it's a lot hopefully you get it know!
