First write it like this.
240/x = 80/100

240/x means 240 over the number we are looking for.
80/100 means 80% over 100% which is the number missing.

100(240) / 80 = x
x = 24000/80
x = 300

Professor Lam is grading papers in the teachers' lounge. He has already finished grading 6 assignments, and is grading 4 more as
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: If Professor Lam grades 4 papers per hour, in 11 hours he will graded 44 papers. (11 x 4= 44). He had previously graded 6 papers giving him a total of 50 papers graded. His assistant can grade 5 papers per hour, thus it would take him 10 hours to grade the same amount of papers as Professor Lam. (10 x 5= 50) Thus: 11 hours Professor Lam 50 papers graded; 10 hours his assistant 50 papers graded.

The price of a washing machine was decreased by 20% to £640.
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

£800

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the percentage formula: NV = m x OV

NV is New Value;

m is Multiplier;

and OV is Old Value.

£640 in the New value, so now we have to convert 20% to a multiplier and find out the Old value.

Make OV the subject of the formula: OV = NV / m

So 20% decrease would mean: 100 - 20 = 80 * 100 = 0.80

Divide 640 (NV) by 0.80 (m) and it will give you:

£800

And it would make sense that the OV is higher, and it matches the statement -> as the NV is the decrease.

Which expressions are equivalent
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Options (B) and (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is (d^{\frac{1}{8}})^5

By simplifying this expression,

(d^{\frac{1}{8}})^5

= (\sqrt[8]{d})^{5}

Option (B)

Similarly,

(d^{\frac{1}{8}})^5

= d^{\frac{5}{8}}

= (d^{5})^{\frac{1}{8}}

Option (C)

Therefore, Options (B) and (C) will be the correct options.
