6 / 88 = 21/x
cross multiply
(6)(x) = (21)(88)
6x = 1848
x = 1848/6
x = 308 <==
Answer:
72.3 - 39.1 = 4tens - 7ones + 2tenth
Step-by-step explanation:
Give the expression 72.3 + (-39.1)
opening the parenthesis:
= 72.3 + (-39.1)
= 72.3 - 39.1
Breaking the decimal values into place values
72.3 = 7tens + 2units + 3tenth
72.3 = 7(10)+2(1)+3(1/10)
72.3 =70+2+0.3
Similarly for 39.1
39.1 = 3tens + 9units + 1tenth
39.1 = 3(10)+9(1)+1(1/10)
39.1 =30+9+0.1
72.3 - 39.1 = 70+2+0.3 - (30+9+0.1)
72.3 - 39.1 = 70+2+0.3 - 30-9-0.1
72.3 - 39.1 = 70-30+2-9+0.3-0.1
72.3 - 39.1 = 40 - 7 +0.2
72.3 - 39.1 = 4tens - 7ones + 2tenth
To solve for the total price:
1.075(50) = 53.75
She will have to pay $53.75 in total.
