Answer: 10 I think
Step-by-step explanation: Jill sold half and you dont know how much it is you know that now she has 36, but before she bought 16 so 36 - 16 = 20 but she sold half
This equals 0.146341463414634
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To figure out 23.2%, first figure out how much 1% is by dividing 1500 divided by 100=15
Next, multiply the 15(1%) by the 23.2% to figure out how much that is.
23.2 x 15 = 348
Now, you have to add thr investment ($348) to his originsl amount of money ($1500).
$1500 + $348 = $1848
Zach now has $1848
What I always do to solve this, is find a common factor for each number first.
Usually 4 or 5 works best. I'll use 4.
4 goes into 80 20 times, which means that 4 = 5% of 80.
If 4 = 5%, and 48 = 12 x 4, then 48 must equal 60% of 80.
(Another way to solve this problem is: simplify 48 / 80. This simplifies to 3/5.
3/5 = 60%)!
