Answer:
(B)5200
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the value was increased by 30%, the new value in the options is 130% of the initial Value.
Let x be the number of hex nuts in the bin before that delivery.
130% of x = New Value
1.3 of x = New Value
x= New Value ÷ 1.3
Since the number of hex nuts in the bin is a whole number, we test the options to see which satisfies this condition.
- 5100 ÷ 1.3 =3923.08
- 5200 ÷ 1.3=4000
- 5400÷ 1.3=4153.85
- 5500÷ 1.3=4230.77
- 5600÷ 1.3=4307.69
5200 is the only option which satisfies our stated condition.
Your answer is B: 21/24
21/ 3= 7
24/3 = 8
Hope this helps :)
Therefore 0.28 is greater.
