It turns out that 5% of 400 is 20.

(1/20)*400=20.

So Ian was being paid £400 a week before he was given a pay rise.

If a price decreases by 20% I can calculate 20% of the price and subtract it from the original price or I can calculate it in on
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

both statements are fine

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the price of a product after decreasing it, they can be done in the two ways that the statement tells us,

First, calculate that% that was decreased and then subtract it from the original price or simply multiply that original price by the percentage in which the new price would remain.

For example:

let "x" be the original price

in the first case it would be:

0.2 * x and then subtract from x, i.e .:

x - 0.2 * x

in the second case it is:

1 - 0.2 = 0.8

that is, the new price would be 0.8 * x

You have been given the task of transporting 3,000 apples 1,000 miles from Appleland to Bananaville. Your truck can carry 1,000
chubhunter [2.5K]
If the truck can carry 1000 apples at a time, Bananaville is 1000 miles away from Appleland and you pay one apple per mile, then it's impossible to deliver any apple to Bananaville, because on 1000 miles you'll pay 1 apple * 1000 miles = 1000 apples as a tax. So no matter if you go once, twice, three times or a hundred times there - you'll be never able to deliver any apple.

Answer: The highest number of apples you can get to Bananaville is 0.
