Answer: He made $90 last week.
Assumption :
Let, Luis made $X last week.
He made $72 this week which is 80% of $X that he made last week
⇒ X * 80% = 72
⇒ X * 80/100 = 72
⇒ X = (72 * 100)/80
⇒ X = 90
Therefore, he made $90 last week.
To remember :
While solving this type of problems, be careful to understand which one of last time and current time is not given; just assume that one and input other conditions, the problem will be solved.
It gained 4 lbs:) 6*4 = 24
24+12 = 36
3^2 = 9 = 4+5
5^2 = 25 = 12+13
work:
If you want to write an odd number as the sum of two consecutive integers, just subtract 1 then divide by 2 and you'll get the first integer.
Like with 25: first subtract 1 and get 24. Then divide by 2 and get 12. So the integers are 12 and 13.
The answer is d. All ratios on the chart divide out to 3.5 as d does the same
