20 / 0.3 = 66.67

Answer:

The number of seashells he have in his collection all together is <u>140</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Stanley has a collection of seashells. He found 35% of his collection on Florida beaches.

Stanley has 49 seashells from Florida.

Now, to find the number of seashells of his collection altogether.

Let the number of seashells all together be $x.$

Percentage of seashells found on Florida beaches = 35%.

Number of seashells found on Florida beaches = 49.

Now, to get the number of seashells altogether we put an equation:

$35\%\ of\ x=49.$

⇒ $\frac{35}{100} \times x=49$

⇒ $0.35\times x=49$

⇒ $0.35x=49$

Dividing both sides by 0.35 we get:

⇒ $x=140.$

Therefore, the number of seashells he have in his collection all together is 140.

The selling price of a refrigerator, is $ 796.40 . If the markup is 10 % of the dealer's cost, what is the dealer's cost of

8_murik_8 [283]

The final price (what it is selling for) is $796.40

The markup is 10% of the original price (the dealer's cost) , meaning that it is 10% more.

We need to find the original price.

We write this as an equation

The original price *110% = final price

This is because the original price is itself (100%) added with 10%

Plug in the known final price

Original Price * 110% = 796.40

Convert 110% to a decimal because the other numbers- such as the final price are also decimal numbers.

Convert 110% to a decimal by moving the decimal point up 2 spaces ( basically dividing it by 100)

110% = 1.1

So it is now

Original price *1.1 = 796.40

Divide both sides by 1.1 to isolate our unknown, the original price

Original price = $724

2. Alana needs to sell 52 boxes of cookies:

She sold 7 boxes to her aunt

She sold 2 boxes to her mother

She sold 15 boxes to her neighbor

you add 7+2+15 = 24 boxes of cookies that she sold

We need to find out how many more boxes of cookies she needs to sell-

We take the 24 boxes she sold and subtract from 52 boxes that she needs to sell.

24 - 52 = 30

The answer is 30, she needs to sell 30 more boxes.

4. Jamila spent $33.00 and Akiko spent $ 42.00

Jamila had 4 times as much money left as Akiko. How much money did each of them have in the beginning?

Since Akiko spent the highest amount- you will have to go with the higher amount to find the answer

4 x $42.00 = $168.00

They both in the beginning had $168.00

I hope this helps.
