Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Actual height of the statue = 40 ft

Converting to in,

= 40 ft * 12 in/1 ft

= 480 in.

Scaled height of the statue = 8 in

= 480/8

= 60 in scale

Therefore, scale is 60 in to 1 in

= 5 ft to 1 in.

Answer:

The scale is 5ft represents 1 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

from length conversions 1ft = 12 inches

On the scale model, the height of the statue is 8 inches. The actual height is 40 ft.

40ft = 40*12 inches =480 inches

divide 480 by 8 inches = 480/8 =60

the height of the statue was scaled down using;

60 inches represents 1 inch

convert 60 inches to ft by dividing by 12.   60/12 =5ft  . Thus

5ft  represents 1 inch

The scale is 5ft represents 1 inch

Helen got a 7% reduction in the price of pair jeans that are normally $32. What is the approximate percent decrease in the price
Colt1911 [192]

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. The approximate percent decrease in the price is 21.87%, thus, the correct option is B.

<h3>What are Percentages?</h3>

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.

Given the reduction in the price is $7, while the original cost is $32. Therefore, the approximate percent decrease in the price is,

Percentage decrease = 7/32  × 100%

                                     = 21.87%

Hence, the approximate percent decrease in the price is 21.87%, thus, the correct option is B.

The correct question is:

Helen got a $7 reduction in the price of a pair of jeans that are normally $32. What is the approximate percent decrease in the price?

The percent decrease is approximately 15%.

The percent decrease is approximately 21%.

The percent decrease is approximately 43%.

The percent decrease is approximately 78%

How to solve 76×327 step by step
hram777 [196]

Here's a method that takes advantage of the values of these particular numbers.

... 76 = 80 - 4

so

... 76 × 327 = (80 -4)×327

... = 80×327 - 4×327

Repeated doubling will give us values that are 2, 4, and 8 times 327.

... 2×327 = 327+327 = 654

... 2×654 = 4×327 = 654+654 = 1308 . . . . we'll use this later

... 2×1308 = 8×327 = 2616

We want 80×327, so we can add a zero to the end of this last:

... 80×327 = 26160

Now, we can subtract 4×327 to get 76×327

... 80×327 - 4×327 = 26160 -1308 = 24852 = 76×327

_____

More conventionally, you would multiply every digit of one number by every digit of the other and add the products according to their respective place values.

327 × 076 = (3×0)×10000 + (3×7 +2×0)×1000 +(3×6 +7×0 +2×7)×100 +(2×6 +7×7)×10 +(7×6)×1

... = 0 +21,000 +3,200 + 610 +42

... = 24,852

Note the pattern of partial products here. This is a method taught to/by practitioners of Vedic mathematics, and can be done in your head. At most, you would write down the partial product sums 21, 32, 61, and 42 to keep from having to carry more than one number in your head at a time.
