Well you find how much the error was and divide it by the amount he predicted.
30/230= 0.13 0.13=13%

Answer: There is 15% error for the erasers

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of folders he predicted = 25

Number of erasers he predicted = 230

Total number of inventories he predicted is given by

230+25=255

Number of erasers he actually sold = 200

Number of folders he actually sold = 30

Total number of inventories he actually sold is given by

200+30=230

Error in estimation is given by

230-200=30

Percentage of error for the erasers only  

\frac{30}{200}\times 100\\\\=\frac{30}{2}\\\\=15\%

Hence, there is 15% error for the erasers.

Consider the equation 3a+0.1n=123. If we solve this equation for n, which equation would result? A. 0.1n=123-3a B. N=123-3a-0.1
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

n = (123 - 3a) / 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

3a + 0.1n = 123

Solve for n

3a + 0.1n = 123

Subtract 3a from both sides

3a + 0.1n - 3a = 123 - 3a

0.1n = 123 - 3a

Divide both sides by 0.1

n = (123 - 3a) / 0.1

The resulting equation if 3a + 0.1n = 123 is solved for n is n = (123 - 3a) / 0.1
