If numerator is 2 less than the denominator of a rational number and when 1 is subtracted from numerator and denominator both, t

xenn [34]

Answer:

$\frac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the denominator be x
So, numerator = x - 2
According to the given condition: when 1 is subtracted from numerator and denominator both, the resulting new rational number in its simplest form is $\frac{1}{2}$

$\implies \frac{x-2-1}{x-1}=\frac{1}{2}$

$\implies \frac{x-3}{x-1}=\frac{1}{2}$

$\implies 2(x-3)=x -1$

$\implies 2x-6=x -1$

$\implies 2x-x=6-1$

$\implies x=5$

$\implies x-2=-5-2= 3$

$Required \: rational\: number = \frac{3}{5}$

You own an electronics store with a merchandise book value of $245,000. You conduct a physical inventory and find the value to b

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

0.22% shrinkage as a percent of sales.

To calculate shrinkage you subtract the physical inventory value from the book value.

245,000-237,000 = 800

The shrinkage was $800. To find the shrinkage as a percent of sales take the shrinkage value and divide it by the sales value to get shrinkage as a percentage of sales.

800 / 360,000 = 0.0022....

Multiply Decimal by 100 to get the percentage

100 * 0.0022.... = 0.22%

The price of tickets for the dance was 1 ticket for $6 or 2 tickets for $8 she looked inside the cash box and found $200 and tic

Aleks04 [339]

We can say that exchanging one couple's ticket for an individual's ticket would increase the money in the cash box from 200 to 202 and it would result in an even number of couples tickets sold.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let the number of tickets sold to the individuals = s

Let the number of tickets sold to the couples = c

According to the question,

s + c = 46 ( Equation 1)

Since each individual's ticket is $6, the total amount of money made by selling tickets to individuals is 6s.

Similarly, since each ticket sold to couples is $8, the total amount of money made by selling tickets to couples is 8c.

So,

6 s + 8 c = 200 ( Equation 2)

On solving both the equations, we get

c = 38 and s = 8

Therefore, 8 tickets were sold to individuals and 38 tickets were sold to the couples.
