Answer:
$399.98
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Mark down percent = 60%
Mark down price = $239.99
Required
Original price of the rack
Let x be the original price of the product. The equation to get x is as expressed below;
60% of x = 239.99
0.6x = 239.99
x = 239.99/0.6
x = 399.98
Hence the rack will ring up for $399.98 at the register
Answer:
Percentage=33.33%
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of students=Number of 8th grader+others who went on trip
where;
Total number of students=60
Number of 8th graders=20
Others who went on trip=x
replacing;
60=20+x
x=(60-20)
x=40
Others who went on trip=x=40
Ratio of number of eighth graders to the number of everyone who went on the trip is;
Eighth graders who went=20 students
Everyone who went including the eighth graders=60
20/60==1/3
(1/3)×100=33.33%
Percentage=33.33%
Answer
7/9 chance to pick a brown sock first and 1/4 chance to get a black sock after
Step-by-step explanation:
there are 9 total socks and 7 are brown so you will have a 7/9 chance to get a brown sock
then if you do get a brown the total number of socks will be 8 in the bag so then you have a 2/8 chance which can be simplified to 1/4
