To determine the answer, we need to express the fractions into its decimal counterparts. 3/5 is equal to 0.6 therefore it is closest to 0.5 while 1/10 is equal to 0.1 therefore it is the last option. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
Answer:
`Part A:
D. 3/4(18 + s) = 31.50
Part B:
$36
Step-by-step explanation:
I think 34 is 3/4, is that right?
here, s is the cost of the skirt
Part A: The answer would be:
3/4(18) + 3/4(s) = 31.5 =
3/4(18 + s) = 31.5
Part B: 3/4(18) + 3/4(s) = 31.5
4.5 + 3/4s = 31.5
Subtract 4.5 from both sides:
3/4s = 27, 27 is the cost of the skirt now, but we need the original price.
multiply both sides by 4/3:
s = 36
