<u>Answer:</u>
$593.26
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We know that the price of the laptop is $2500 and each year its resale value decreases by 25%. It means that 100 - 25 = 75% of the value is retained every year for the resale.
So, the resale value for 1st year =
$1875
for 2nd year =
$1406.25
for 3rd year =
$1054.7
for 4th year =
$791.01
for 5th year =
$593.25
Or we can use the following formula to find its resale value after 5 years:
$593.26
When you have to divide by a fraction, you have to multiply the other number by the fraction's reciprocal.
8 = 3/4 w Divide by 3/4
w = 8/(3/4)
w = 8/ (3/4) = 8 x 4/3 Multiply by the numerator and divide by the denominator.
w = (8 x 4) / 3
w = 32 / 3
w = 10 2/3
If it is 50 pages in an hour, half an hour would be 25 pages, and if it is 40 pages in an hour it would be 20 pages in half an hour, the answer is 5 pages more in half hour
