If 5000 gets increased by 200, then you end up with 5200.

if 900 gets increased by 200, then it'd be 1100.

so in short, if we take 5200 to be the 100%, what is 1100 in percentage from it?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
5200&100\\
1100&p
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{5200}{1100}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies p=\cfrac{1100\cdot 100}{5200}$

The quotient of the opposite of 30 and 6 plus the opposite of 8

Alina [70]

First, let's turn this sentence into a mathematical expression:
The quotient of the opposite of 30 and 6 means we're dividing negative 30 by 6. The next part, "plus the opposite of 8" means we want to add -8 to whatever we get from -30/6. So we have:
$\frac{-30}{6}+(-8)$
$-5+(-8)$
$-13$
