Vanessa: a dime = 10 cents = 0.10
A penny = 1 cent = 0.01
6 x 0.10 = 0.60
2 x 0.01 = 0.02
Total = 0.60 + 0.02 = 0.62
Joachim : a dollar = 1.00
3 x 0.10 = 0.30
5 x 0.01 = 0.05
Total = 1.00 + 0.30 + 0.05 = 1.35
Jimmy: total = 5.00 + 0.07 = 5.07
Total of all 3: 0.62 + 1.35 + 5.07 = $7.04
This is less than $8 so they don’t have enough.
They need: 8.00 - 7.04 = $0.96 more
Answer:
18.288
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that 100% = 45 sales and 35% = X sales amount
You can create a ratio to help you solve for x
45 = 100%
x = 35 %
Which is equal to this fraction: (45/x) = (100/35)
Solving for X by cross multiplying and dividing by 100:
[(45)(35)] / 100 = X = 15.75 = 16 sales (rounded up)
You would need at least 16 sales to increase sales total by 35%
The numbers are 9 and 27.
