The easiest way to do it (for me) is to find 1% of the regular price. I think we can round the prices to $70,00 and $40,00 to show nice percentage.
70 / 100 = 0,7
So 1% is 0,7. Now we can divide $40,00 by 0,7 to calculate how many percent it is:
40 / 0,7 = 57 (after rounding it to the nearest whole number)
So the discount was 100 - 57 = 43 percent.
Doublecheck (optional):
70 * 57% =
= 70 * 57/100 =
= 7 * 57/10 =
= 7 * 5 7,10 =
= 7 * 5,7 =
= 39,9 (the price after the discount)
70 * 43% =
= 70 * 43/100 =
= 7 * 43/10 =
= 7 * 4 3/10 =
= 7 * 4,3 =
= 30,1 (the value of the discount)
The difference of 0,1 is because of the rounding, but it's correct.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
−7(x+2)=−3(x−5)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−7(x+2)=−3(x−5)
(−7)(x)+(−7)(2)=(−3)(x)+(−3)(−5)(Distribute)
−7x+−14=−3x+15
−7x−14=−3x+15
Step 2: Add 3x to both sides.
−7x−14+3x=−3x+15+3x
−4x−14=15
Step 3: Add 14 to both sides.
−4x−14+14=15+14
−4x=29
Step 4: Divide both sides by -4.
−4x −4
x=29/−4
x= −29/4
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that, three oil tankers together contain 37 5/7 litres of oil.
Total volume of oil is 
If two tankers have 11 3/14 litres and 12 3/7 litres of oil.
Oil in first tanker is 
Oil in second tanker is 
Oil in first and second tanker is :
Noo, oil in the third tanker = total volume - (Oil in first tanker + second tanker )
Hence, this is the required solution.
