Answer:

87.8

Step-by-step explanation:

So you have to multiply 91 times 3.5 which equals 318.5

                      91 × 3.5 = 318.5

Then divide 318.5 by 100 which equals 3.185

                      318.5 ÷ 100 = 3.185

Next subtract 91 by 3.185 which equals 87.815

                      91 - 3.185 = 87.815

Last Round 87.815 to 87.8

                       87.8 should be the answer

Hope this helps

Answer:

The number is 94.3 (to the nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number =x

When x is decreased by 3.5%, we have:

(100% of x)-(3.5% of x)=(100-3.5)% of x =96.5% of x

When a number is decreased by 3.5%, the result is 91.

Therefore:

96.5% of x = 91

Converting percentage to decimal: 96.5%=0.965

0.965x = 91

Divide both sides by 0.965

x=94.3

The number is 94.3 (to the nearest tenth)

\boxed{pd\sqrt[4]{48p^3d}}

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Here we have the following expression:

\sqrt[4]{48p^7d^5}

So we need to simplify it:

\sqrt[4]{48p^7d^5} \\ \\ \\ We \ can \ write: \\ \\ p^7=p^4\cdot p^3 \\ \\ d^5=d^4\cdot d \\ \\ \\ So: \\ \\ \sqrt[4]{48p^4\cdot p^3\cdot d^4\cdot d} \\ \\ \\ By \ property: \\ \\ \sqrt[n]{x^n}=x \\ \\ \\ Finally: \\ \\ \boxed{pd\sqrt[4]{48p^3d}}
