4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
the numerator of fraction is 1 less than its denominator. If the numerator is increased by 4 and the denominator is increased by 5, the new fraction becomes equivalent to 4/5. what is the original fraction?
Let n = numerator
d = denominator
n = d - 1
= 
=
cross multiply
5(d + 3) = 4(d + 5)
5d + 15 = 4d + 20
d = 5
n = d - 1
5 - 1 = 4
original fraction 4/5
3x=1x+5

Answer:
$8.27
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to find the tip. We know it was 18% of the total. So...
x (the variable we need to find) 18%
__ = ___
10.08 (the total bill including tip) 100%
cross multiply
100x = 181.44
-------------------- (divide by 100 to get x by itself)
100
x = 1.81 (The 18% tip that was given)
So now we know how much the tip was, we subtract it from the bill
10.08 - 1.81 = $8.27
