So, she has a box of treats that weighs 9.0 pounds.
She's using those treats to make smaller bags, each having 0.6 pounds of treats.
How many smaller bags can she make?
Very handy question to know the answer to. I know of no place on the planet that does not have a tax of some sort.
The tax only applies when money changes hands. It does not apply to any discounts
So if you take the deal, the cost is
Cost of 2 pizzas = normal price - the discount.
Cost of 2 pizzas = 2*10.50 - 2.00
Cost of 2 pizzas = 21 - 2
Cost of 2 pizzas = 19.00 dollars.
Not you add on the sales tax. You can do this one of two ways, the long way or the short way.
<u>Long way</u>
Find the sales tax
Tax = % * cost
Tax = (7.5/100) * 19
Tax = 1.425 don't round yet.
Total Cost = purchase + tax
Total Cost = 19.00 + 1.425 = 20.425 Now round. This is a real problem. It depends on what you have been told to do about rounding when 5 is the last digit. I round up. So my answer would be 20.43 <<<<< Answer.
<u>Short Way</u>
Cost = (Price - discount)*(1 + %/100)
Cost = (21 - 2)*(1+ 7.5/100)
Cost = 19 * (1.075)
Cost = 20.425 = 20.43
Lol, this sounds highly inaccurate. I have done orange squeezing myself. I can tell you, it's very disappointing. But for the sake of sayin it, let's do the math!!
Alright, so we know that FOUR large oranges makes SIX glasses of juice. It wants to know haw many glasses can be made when you increase the amount of oranges to SIX.
Well, that's simple. Set up an equation! 4/6=oranges over glasses.
6/x=oranges to unknown glasses.
Well, to solve this, we do exactly as the fractions imply. We divide. We need to know the orange-to-glass-ratio on a SMALLER scale.
So, simply take the denominator, and divide it by the numerator! 6/4=1.5
So, we know it takes 1 orange to make 1.5 glasses of juice now, 1/1.5
So, multiply both sides by 6, since that's how many oranges we have NOW.
1*6=6, 1.5*6=9
As a fraction, it's originally 6/x, but NOW it's 6/9
The answer is 6 oranges makes 9 glasses of juice
