First, let x or any variable represent the number of paintings Kate initially has. After selling 12 of it, her paintings now becomes only x - 12. Then, she purchased 7 more making the number of her paintings become x - 12 + 7 = x - 5. This number tantamount to 21.
x - 5 = 21 ; x = 26
Thus, Kate initially had 26 paintings.
For this case we must find 35% of 280.
Kerrie gets 10% and then 25%. So:
10% of 280:
280 ------------> 100%
x -----------------> 10%
Where "x" represents the amount given by 10% of 280.

Thus, 10% of 280 is 28.
Now, we find 25% of 280:
280 ------------> 100%
x -----------------> 25%
Where "x" represents the amount given by 25% of 280.

Thus, 25% of 280 is 70.
So we have that 35% of 280 is given by:

So, Kerrie's solution is correct.

Answer:
6.34
Explanation:
6.34615384615 rounded is 6.34
so therefore 6.34*26 is 164.84 which is more closer to 165. But if you happen to multiply 6.35*26 it is 165.1 but it goes over the right number by 0.01. So stick to 6.34 and have under exceeded amount.
