We know that 1/7 of a liter filled up 1/9 of the aquarium, well, a "whole" will be 9/9.

how many liters will it be to fill up the 9/9 of the aquarium?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
\stackrel{liters}{water}&\stackrel{fish}{aquarium}\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\frac{1}{7}&\frac{1}{9}\\\\
w&\frac{9}{9}
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{7}}{w}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{9}}{\frac{9}{9}}\implies 
\cfrac{\frac{1}{7}}{\frac{w}{1}}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{9}}{\frac{9}{9}}\implies 
\cfrac{1}{7}\cdot \cfrac{1}{w}=\cfrac{1}{9}\cdot \cfrac{9}{9}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{7w}=\cfrac{1}{9}\implies 9=7w\implies \cfrac{9}{7}=w

Since 1/7 L of water fills 1/9 of the aquarium, 9 times 1/7 will fill the aquarium:

9(1/7) = 9/7 = 1 2/7 L of water will fill the aquarium.

Help me with question 21 to get brainliest
Andrej [43]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can call the original value x. In 2012, the painting's value was 1.05 x. In the beginning of 2013, the value was (1.05 x) * 0.98, and that increased to (1.05x) * 0.98 * 1.40 at the end of 2013. When we simplify, we get 1.4406 x as a value, and we know that this is equal to $52,640. We can write 1.4406x = 52640, and when we solve for x, we get x ≈ $36415.38. Hope this helps!

Micheal has been awarded a pay rise of 4%.His salary is £ 24 492 <br> What was his apart before?
Nesterboy [21]
Because there was a pay rise, we can write the equation as x+0.04x = 24.492 and solve for x.

x+0.04x = 24.492
1.04x = 24.492
x=23.55

His original pay was £23.55
