40% = 32/x
Rewrite using a decimal
.40 = 32 / x
Multiply both sides by x
.40x = 32
Divide both sides by .40
x = 32 / .40
x = 80
Write the full fraction
32/80
Answer 32/80

pls I'll send you the answer tomorrow
You have to remember P.E.M.D.A.S. when doing problems like this.
Drew used PEMDAS so we know he isn't wrong. However, Sam didn't use PEMDAS. She multiplied 2&5 instead of raising 5 to the second.
The correct answer for Sams' problem would be 30.
Hope this helps! :)
To solve this you need to take the answer from the previous iteration.
Iteration 1: The answer is given
a1 = 300
Iteration 2: Solve using the equation. a(n-1) is the answer from the previous iteration. n = the number of the current iteration. So, a(n-1) = 300 and n = 2
a2 = 300/2 = 150
Iteration 3: a(n-1) = 150 and n = 3
a3 = 150/3 = 50
Iteration 4: a(n-1) = 50 and n = 4
a4 = 50/4 = 12.5
Answer: 12.5
