Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
20%
13.15 ounces of 72% acid and 71.85 ounces of 25% acid are needed
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Total mass of acid required= 85 ounces
Let the mass of 72% acid be 'a'
Let the mass of 25% acid be 'b'
a + b = 85
b = 85-a
85(40/100) = a(72/100) + b(25/100)
85(2/5) = a(72/100) +(85- a) (25/100)
34 = (72a/100) + (2125/100) - (25a/100)
34 - (2125/100) = (72a + 25a) /100
(3400-2125)/100 = 97a /100
97a = 1275
a = 13.15 ounces
b = 85 - 13.14
b = 71.85 ounces
13.15 ounces of 72% acid and 71.85 ounces of 25% acid are needed
Answer:
187
Step-by-step explanation:
A number m is such that when it is divided by 30, 36 and 45 the remainder is always 7.
We should first find the LCM of 30, 36 and 45
We get that the LCM of the three numbers is 280 (working attached).
So now;
= 6
= 5
= 4
But we need a number that leaves a remainder of 7 so we add 7 to 180 to get; 180 + 7 = 187.
Answer: $1179.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage of commission = 5.5%
Value of property = $21,450
Commission = Percentage commission × Value of property
= 5.5% × $21,450
= 5.5/100 × $21,450
= 0.055 × $21,450
= $1179.75
The commission is $1179.75
Remember that dividing a negative number by a negative number will result in a positive quotient:

The answer is
0.5.
