Answer:

You have a 25%, or 1/4 chance that you will choose a yellow paper clip.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, you want to find the total number of paper clips.

6 + 3 + 4 + 2 + 5 = 20 total paper clips

<u>This is your denominator.</u>

2) From the problem, we can understand that there are 5 yellow paper clips.

<u>This is your numerator.</u>

3) From the numerator and denominator we have from above, your fraction is 5/20.

4) This can be simplified into 1/4, which is 25%.

Jeans are reduced from 28.00 to 18.20 during a sale at a department store. What percentage was the original price reduced?
Natali [406]

Answer:

The original price was reduced 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Jeans are reduced from $28.00 to $18.20

In this problem

The original price of 28.00 represent 100%

so

using proportion

Find out what percentage represent the difference between the original price and the new price

\frac{28}{100}=\frac{28-18.20}{x}\\\\x=100(9.8)/28\\\\x=35\%

therefore

The original price was reduced 35%
