Answer:
What I understand is that I need to give someone an exact number so that when 30% is taken, they keep exactly 35,000
To make the statement above true, we would need to divide 35,000 by 7 since the answer would be 10% of the number we need. Once we do this we get 5000 which is 10% now we multiply 5000 by 10 to get 100% and we get 50.000 once we give this amount to the person and 30% is taken away they are left with 35,000
To work this out all you need to do is 108 divide by 7.
The answer would be 15.43
Therefore he would eat 15.43 pounds or you could round it down to 15 pounds.
Answer
8kg
Explanation
3/4--------15
2/5-------x
cross multiplying
3/4×X = 2/5×15
3X/4 = 30/5
3X/4 = 6
cross multiplying
3X = 4×6
3X = 24
dividing bothsides by 3
3X /3 = 24/3
X = 8
therefore, the answer is 8 kg
15:24
divide both sides by 3
b. 5:8
for 6:30
divide both sides by 6
1:5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
small=s, s=3.99
large=l, l=19.20
10s+8l=192.20
20s+l=99
we can see that in the second equation, 20s+l=99
l=99-20s
lets replace l in the first equation
10s+8(99-20s)=192.20
10s+792-160s=192.20
-150s=-792+192.20
150s=599.80
s=3.99
l=99-20(3.99)=99-79.80=19.20
