An example should make this clear.
If $50 is 40% what is the value of the whole amount?
Answer:- Whole amount = 100^%
By proportion this = (100/ 40) * 50
= 2.5 * 50
= $125 (answer)
Answer:
5 apples
Step-by-step explanation:
4 friends + Robby = 5 people
25 apples in total ÷ 5 people
= 5 apples per person
A = oz of the solution A
b = oz of the solution B
The scientist knows that solution A is 45% salt and solution B is 95% salt. She wants to obtain 80 ounces of a mixture that is 65% salt.
a + b = 80
0.45a + 0.95b = 0.65*80
by solving the above system of equations you'll find····
a = 48 oz
b = 32 oz
~I hope this helped~
If it doesn't make since, I can try to switch up the wording ^^
I WOULD DO THE EASIEST, A.
