<span>Each smaller donation was for $20
The largest donation was $15 greater than the smaller donation.
First, determine the size of each donation. Since they are in a ratio of 4:4:7, it's easiest to add the ratios together (4+4+7) = 15. Then divide the total donation by that sum (75/15) = 5. Finally, multiply 5 by each of the ratios.
5 * 4 = 20, 5 * 4 = 20, and 5 * 7 = 35
So the 2 smaller donations were $20 each, and the largest donation was for $35.
The largest donation was $35 - $20 = $15 larger than one of the smaller donations.</span>
Answer:
here this should help you understand.

First you turn 15% into a decimal by dividing by 100
.15 then multiply by 59.99 and get around 8.99
Then subtract 8.99 from 59.99 and get $51
So $59.99 with 15% off is about $51
Hope this helped! :))
Answer:
variable
The letter "x" is often used in algebra to mean a value that is not yet known. It is called a "variable" or sometimes an "unknown". In x + 2 = 7, x is a variable, but we can work out its value if we try! A variable doesn't have to be "x", it could be "y", "w" or any letter, name or symbol.
