Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply to remove the fraction, then set equal to 0 and solve.
8 . You round 31.9 to 32 then divide it by 4 which gives you 8
You started out with 260, and increased to 430.
The amount you increased was (430 - 260) = 170
170 is (170/260) = <em>65.4%</em> of what you started with.
============================
Another way:
The new amount is (430/260) of the old amount.
430 / 260 = 1.654 = 165.4%
The original amount was 260.
You started with 100% of it.
You ended up with 165.4% of it.
That's an increase of 65.4% .
The simplified fraction of 49\112 is 7/16. This results from you finding a common number which can divide into 49 and 112 equally. In this case the number is 7. Resulting in the answer 7/16.
