Explain how you could write 35% as the sum of two benchmark percents or as a multiple of a percent.

2 answers:

7 0

Possible correct answers are:

20%+15%; and 50% of 70%.

Explanation:

Benchmark percents are percents that are commonly used. 20% and 15% are two commonly used percentages; the sum of them would be
20%+15% = 35%.

A multiple of a percent is a percent of a percent. Taking 50% of 70% of a number is the same as multiplying by 0.5(0.7) = 0.35.

Best Answer : you would have to divide 35 with the place value it is in. For example : 35% ; 35/100 and then you divide which is 0.35, that is your answer. As a fraction 0.35 is really 7/20.

An ancient Sicilian legend says that the barber in a remote town who can be reached only by traveling a dangerous mountain road

Answer:

No there cannot be.

Step-by-step explanation:

In explaining this question, I would like us to take into account who the barber is,

" the barber is the one who shaves all those, and those only, who do not shave themselves".

This barber cannot be in existence because who would shave him? If he should shave himself then there is a violation of the rule which says he shaves only those who do not shave themselves. If he shaves himself then he ceases to be a barber. And if he does not shave himself then he happens to be under those who must be shaved by the barber, because of what the rule says. But then he is the barber.

This lead us to a contradiction.

Neither is possible so there is no such barber.
