Answer:

<u>The percent decrease of the microwave from the original price to the sale price is 24%</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Original price of a microwave = $ 75

Mark-up price of the microwave = $ 90

Sale price of the microwave = $ 57

2. What is the percent decrease from the original price to the sale price?

For answering this question we will use the Direct Rule of Three this way:

Price         Percentage

75                 100%

57                   x

75x = 57 * 100

75x = 5,700

x = 5,700/75

x = 76

76 = 100 - 24

<u>The percent decrease of the microwave from the original price to the sale price is 24%</u>

the initial cost to set up a website is $48. it cost $44 per month to maintain the website . how many months will you be able to
Delicious77 [7]

We would start with 400 - 48, to cover the initial cost. We would be left with 352 dollars to spare for the monthly bill. 352 divided by 44, which is the monthly cost, would be 8. The website could be set up and held for 8 or 9 months, depending on if the initial cost is paid at the same time or before the first monthly one.

Hello,

Dividing by 1/2 is like multiplying par 2, right ?

Dividing by 5/10 is like multiplying par 10/5, right ?

and then

\dfrac{\dfrac{9}{10}}{\dfrac{5}{10}}=\dfrac{9}{10}\times \dfrac{10}{5}=\dfrac{9}{5}

as 10/10=1
