The number here is will be represented as under -

Let the number be x.

Thus, the 5 times the number will be = 5x.

Now, it says, the number is 68 less than 5 times a number.

The equation so formed will be -

5x - 68 = x

4x = 68

x = 68.

Thus, the number will be 17.

Let us re-check the number,

(5 × 17) - 68 = 17

85 - 68 = 17

<em><u>17 = 17. Thus, the number will be 17.</u></em>

For question 1:
1% = 120 ÷ 100 = 1.2
15% = 1.2 × 15 = 18
So, 15% of 120 is 18

For question 2:
68.4 ÷ 72 = 0.95
0.95 × 100 = 95%
So, the percentage is 95%

For question 3,
1% = 12.5 ÷ 8 = 1.5625
100% = 1.5625 × 100 = 156.25
So, 8% of 12.5 is 156.25.

For question 4,
1% = 48 ÷ 40 = 1.2
100% = 1.2 × 100 = 120
So, 40% of 48 is 120.

For question 5,
1% = 195 ÷ 100 = 1.95
62.5% = 1.95 × 62.5 = 121.875
So, 62.5% of 195 is 121.875

Maksim231197 [3]
You'd do $0.50 × 11 = $5.50 which is the total cost for the rides, and then you'd add $6 to make $11.50 which is the total amount you spent.
