ANSWER: x
=
1
3/4 + 1 = 1.75 which is equivalent to 7/4
1- 3/4 = 0.25 which is equivalent to 1/4
the problem now looks like 7/4 / 1/4
you cancel out both 4
this problem simplified looks like 7/1
which is equivalent to 7 if you divide
Answer:
77bb
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(a) $180
(b) 25%
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) $126 = 30% of x; x is the total
so from this, you get an equation: 126 = 0.3x
solve the equation: x = 180; so the amount before
discount is $180
(b) You know the price of discount for the rice cooker is
180-126 which is $54
Then you subtract 54 from 64 to get the discount amount for the toaster
10/40 is 1/4 or 25%
