12/60 students chose science fiction
Approximately x/150 students prefer sf
60x = 1800
x = 30
30/150 students are assumed to prefer sf
30/150 = x/100
150x = 3000
x = 20
20/100 students are likely to prefer sf
Mr. Rodriguez made a reasonable estimate for the approximate percentage of students that prefer science fiction, because if 12/60 is equivalent to 30/150 which refers to the number of students who can be assumed to prefer science Fiction out of the whole school. Considering we need to identify what 30/150 as a percentage is, we can reduce it down to 1/5 to make I easier, then divide 1 by 5 to get .2
.2 as a percentage is 20%, so his inference was indeed reasonable.

You have to give them like terms so that when you eliminate they cancel out and you can solve. The easiest way to do so is by multiplying the top equation by -4 and the bottom by 3.
Answer:
Original price of the television = $850
Step-by-step explanation:
Television price on sale = $680.00
% of sale = 20%
It means price on sale = 80% = $680.00
Original price of the television = 100% = ?
Price on 1% = 680/80 = $8.5
Original price of the television = 100% = $8.5 x 100
= $850
