If increasing 15 by n% is equivalent to decreasing 75 by n%, then what is 6% of n?

1 answer:

4 0

15(1 + n/100) = 75(1 - n/100)
15 + 0.15n = 75 - 0.75n
0.15n + 0.75n = 75 - 15
0.9n = 60
n = 60/0.9 = 66 2/3%

6% of n = 0.06 x 66 2/3 = 4

To divide 1.89 ÷ 0.9, we need to change it. Choose the correct problem below to show what the “new” look would be.

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

D. 18.9 ÷ 9

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to divide

1.89 ÷ 0.9 but write it in different form

so ,we need to eliminate decimal from 0.9

as 0.9*10 = 9

thus,we multiply both 1.89 and 0.9 with 10, then we will have

(1.89*10) ÷ (0.9*10)

=> 18.9 ÷ 9

Thus, based on above calculation new look would be D. 18.9 ÷ 9
