Answer: 124
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
100% =200
divide both by 100 to find 1%
1%= 2
multiply by 5 to find 5%
5%=10
200=100%
divide both by 200 to find 1
1=0.5%
multiply both by 150 to find percentage
150=75%
Answer:
The 2nd case is the better value
Step-by-step explanation:
£11.45
Case 1: That would be £11.45 + -------------- for the two shirts. This comes
2
out to 1.5(£11.45) = £17.175 for two shirts.
Case 2: Two shirts for £10.16 each comes out to £20.32; multiplying that by (1.00 - 0.20), or (0.80) results in (0.80)(£20.32) = £16.256.
The 2nd case is the better value, as one would get 2 shirts for £16.26, versus 2 shirts for £17.18 in the other case.
Let's set up some equations.
We know that 7/8 of a liter fills up our bottle 5/6 of the way. Thus 7/8=5/6 * b.
Now, let's divide both sides by 5/6 to get b = 21/20. However, none of the answer choices provided are correct. Let's look at each one to determine why it's not correct.
A. This answer is false because 35/48 < 7/8. If 7/8 of a liter doesn't completely fill up the bottle, there is no way that a value less than 7/8 can fill up the bottle - it's impossible.
B. Same case as answer A, but 11/38 instead of 35/48.
C. Same case as answer A, but 11/20 instead of 35/48.
D. This answer however is more than 35/48, so is it correct? No. 113/35 is just over 3. Since 7/8 of a liter almost fills the bottle but does not quite completely fill it, there is no way that adding 2 more liters can fill up the bottle just the tiny 1/6 of the way. That is disproportional and is thus wrong.
