Answer:

$74

Step-by-step explanation:

you convert the percent to a decimal, .06, and try multiplying it with the numbers before 78, so you multiply it with 77, 76, 75, then 74, and when you multiply it with 74 you get 78.44.

Or you figure out the total amount money wise that the tax would count as and subtract that from 78.44.

in a school gym, the ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls was 4:3 . after 160 boys left the gym, the ratio became
Annette [7]

Answer:

300 girls were there in the gym.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls was 4:3, after 160 boys left the gym, the ratio became 4:5.

Now, to find the number of girls in the gym.

The girls in the gym does not left, their quantity is same before and after.

So, we multiply the both ratios to make the girls ratio same:

4:3 × 5 = 20:15

4:5 × 3 = 12:15

Now, <em>we find the units of the ratio</em>.

<em>The ratio of boys dropped down by 160</em>:

20 - 12 = 8 units.

160 = 8 units

Now, dividing both sides by 8 we get:

20 = 1 unit

So, 1 unit = 20.

Now, girls = 15 units

So, 15 × 20 = 300.

Therefore, 300 girls were there in the gym.
