So from 3.80 to 2.85, is a difference of 0.95 or 95 cents.

now, if we take 3.80 to be the 100%, what is 0.95 off of it in percentage?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
3.80&100\\
0.95&p
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{3.80}{0.95}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies p=\cfrac{0.95\cdot 100}{3.80}

Triangle FGH is similar to triangle DEF. solve for p
malfutka [58]

Answer:

We get value p=16

Step-by-step explanation:

When triangles are similar, the ratio of corresponding sides is equal.

In the given triangles we have to find value of p

We have the ratio: (Can use ratio of any two sides)

\frac{HF}{PD} =\frac{GF}{ED}

Now, putting values and finding p

\frac{12}{p}=\frac{24}{32}\\Cross\:Multiply\\12\times 32 = 24 p\\p=\frac{384}{24}\\p= 16

So, we get value p=16

1) Find x, if 1/3 of x is 14
BartSMP [9]

"of" means multiply      and         "is" means equal

1. \frac{1}{3}x = 14

                                x = 14(3)      <em>multiply both sides by 3 to isolate "x"</em>

                                x = 42

2. \frac{1}{5}x = 14

                                x = 14(5)      <em>multiply both sides by 5 to isolate "x"</em>

                                x = 70

3. \frac{2}{5}x = 14

                                2x = 14(5)      <em>multiply both sides by 5 </em>

                                2x = 70

                                  x = 35         <em>divide both sides by 2 to isolate "x"</em>

4. \frac{7}{8}x = 14

                                7x = 14(8)      <em>multiply both sides by 8 </em>

                                7x = 112

                                  x = 16         <em>divide both sides by 7 to isolate "x"</em>

Answers: 42, 70, 35, 16
