Answer:

156.25 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, for starters we know that the substance decays by 2% each day and its been decaying for 34 days. Therefore, the substance has decayed by 68%        

34 x 2 = 68

Hence, 50 grams is 32% because the substance has already decayed by 68%

100 - 68 = 32

So now we know 50 grams is 32%. Now we need to find how much 100% is.

50 - 32%

X   - 100%

We cross multiply.

50 x 100 = 5000

And divide.

5000 / 32 = 156.25

Thus, in the beginning, there were 156.25 grams in the substance.

Hope this helps! :)

Roslan had a total of $50 in 10-cent coins,20-cent coins and 50-cent coins. The value of his 10-cent coins was 30% of the total
Len [333]

Answer:

$21

Step-by-step explanation:

Provided total value = $50

$50 = 5,000 cents.

We are provided,

10 cent coins value = 30%  of total value

= 0.3 \times 5,000 cents = 1,500 cents

Value of 20 cents coin = 28% of total value

= 0.28 \times 5,000 cents = 1,400 cents

Therefore, remaining value of cents = Total value of 50 cents coins

5,000 cents - value of 10-cent coins - value of 20-cent coins = total value of 50 cents coins

5,000 - 1,500 - 1,400 = 2,100 cents = $21

Which means number of 50 cents coin = \frac{2,100}{50} = 42\ coins

Alternatively,

To calculate value of 50 cent coins

Total value = 100%

Value in 10-cent coins + 20-cent coins = 30% + 28% = 58%

Value in 50-cent coins = 100 - 58 = 42%

= $50 \times 42% = $21

tester [92]

Answer: 8/9 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

The word 'of' means 'times' as far as fractions are concerned. In this case, we have 1/3 of 2 1/3.

First, it is a good idea to make 2 1/3 an improper fraction - as 8/3, so now we have:

1/3 of 8/3, but since 'of' means 'times' we have,

1/3 x 8/3 = 8/9

The answer is 8/9 cups.
