The original price of a laptop that is 65% of the sales price is R3 1076923.07692
<h3>How to find the original price when given the percentage?</h3>
The sale price of a laptop is R3 700,00,which is only 65% of the original price.
Therefore,
let
x = original price
Hence,
700, 000 = 65% of x
700,000 = 65 / 100 of x
cross multiply
70000000 = 65x
divide both sides by 65
x = 70000000 / 65
x = 1076923.07692
Therefore, the original price of the laptop is R3 1076923.07692

<h3>Area of shape P = 12 square cm</h3>
Explanation:
Shape P is a triangle with the base of 4 units across the horizontal portion up top.
The height of the triangle is 6 units. Count the spaces down the middle of the triangle and you should get 6 spaces.
Area = base*height/2
Area = 4*6/2
Area = 24/2
Area = 12 square cm.
The answer is 18...
(3 / 8 ) * 48 = 18
Pretty sure they mean the same thing but I would go with arithmetic
