Answer:

Let the original price be x

70% of x = 14

70x/100 = 14

70x/14 = 100

5x = 100

x = 100/5

x = 20

Therefore the original price = $20

Hope this helps!

Answer:

20$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 14 is 70% of the original price, the full price being 100%

We set up an equation to find 100%

14 = 70%      //So we divide by 7 on both sides to get 10%

2 = 10%        //Then times by 10 to get 100%

<u><em>20 = 100%</em></u>

As a general rule we always try to find 1%, 10%, 25%, or 50% of the original price, as these numbers are quite easy to multiply to 100%

Can someone help me with these 2 questions please???
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

See step-by-step explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first question, you simply put an EMPTY circle above 2 and draw an arrow from it all the way down to -3. The reason why we put an empty circle is because there is no equal sign below it.

For the second question, you put a FILLED circle above 4 and draw an arrow from it all the way down to -3. The reason why we use a filled circle is because x is less than OR equal to 4.

Each packet of the cooking oil weighs 2/5th of a kilogram and one kilogram of the cooking oil costs $6.5. Sara went to the groce
Reika [66]

Answer:

C) $20.80

Step-by-step explanation:

1 kg of cooking oil = $6.5

1 packet of cooking oil =2/5 kg

If 1 kg of cooking oil = $6.5

2/5kg of cooking oil = $X

Cross Multiply

1kg × $X = 2/5kg × $6.5

$X = 13/5

$X = 2.6

Hence 2/5kg of oil cost $2.6

Since 1 packet of oil = 2/5kg of oil , 1 packet of oil cost $2.6

The amount she spent if she bought if she bought 8 packets of the cooking oil is calculated as:

1 packet of oil = $2.6

8 packets of oil =

$2.5 × 8

= $20.80

Therefore,if Sara bought 8 packets of oil, the amount she would spend = $20.80
