Find 7.8% of $60 so you can subtract it to find how much the stock is worth.

Formula: (7.8*60)/100= $4.68

$60-$4.68=$55.32

Answer: $55.32

One number is 3/8 of another number. The difference of the two numbers is 4.2. What is the lesser number

boyakko [2]

Answer:

2.52.

Step-by-step explanation:

If one number is x then the other = 3x/8.

Also x - 3x / 8 = 4.2

x - 0.375 x = 4.2

0.625x = 4.2

x = 4.2 / 0.625

x = 6.72.

So the lesser number is 6.72 * 0.375 = 2.52.

We are given,

$\longrightarrow 0.2(10 - 5c) = 5c - 16$

Solving the parenthesis

${ \longrightarrow 0.2 \times 10 - 0.2 \times 5c = 5c - 16 }$

${ \longrightarrow 2 - 1c = 5c - 16 }$

${ \longrightarrow 2 + 16 = 5c + 1c }$

${ \longrightarrow 18 = 6c }$

Dividing both sides by 6

${ \longrightarrow 3 = c }$

Hence c = 3.
