If I'm interpreting this question correctly, then you want to know the tax per dollar. In order to find that, you need to find the percentage of $420 that equals $60. So, 

420x = 60
x = 60/420 
x = 0.1429 (rounded) 

So, the tax rate would be this value multiplied by 100%.

0.1429 x 100% = 14.29%

Last year Billy weighed 75kg. This year he weighed 90kg. With what percentage did his weight increase. SHOW ALL WORK!!!
polet [3.4K]

well let's round. 90= 100, 75=80 that is how I face it. now 80 is 1/5 of 5/5= 100. so as a (%) we would sort it like:::: it is 80% out of +100 so he must have grown around 13%-16% due to him being 75kg in the past.

The figure shows a carpeted room. How many square feet of the room are carpeted?
OverLord2011 [107]

Split the figure into two shapes.

Top rectangle would be 6 feet x 5 feet ( 8-3)

The bottom rectangle would be 2 feet x 3 feet.

Calculate the area of both and add them together:

6 x 5 = 30

2 x 3 = 6

Total area = 30 + 6 = 36 square feet.
