So you know the merchant made a 15% profit on the pen, so she bought it for a cheaper price. To find the cost of the pen before you have to take the price now, $6.90 and times it by 85%. You do 85% because you subtract the 15% she saved from 100% and you get 85%. So 6.90x.85= 5.865 which rounds to $5.87
No, becuase c has to be a certain number to equal 15
1yard =3ft so 》 6ft/4×3ft=6/12=1/2
Answer:
Correct answer: Two decimal places to the right
Step-by-step explanation:
We will set the classic proportion:
29,235 - 100%
371 - x%
29,235 : 371 = 100 : x ⇒ 29,235 · x = 371 · 100
x = (371/ 29,235) · 100 = 0.0127 · 100 = 1.27%
x = 1.27%
You divide first number by the second and then multiply with 100,
which is the same as moving the decimal point two places to the right.
