Answer:
10,000
Step-by-step explanation:
500/0.05= 10,000
You take the amount you are given divided by the decimal form of the percentage you are given to find the answer. It's a reverse from the way you find 5% of 10,000.
0.05=5%
Check your work: 10,000*5%= 500

Answer:
x = 6
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two numbers be x and y
<u><em>Condition 1:</em></u>
7x+3y = 54 -----------(1)
<u><em>Condition 2:</em></u>
x = 2+y -----------------(2)
<em>Putting (2) in (1)</em>
=> 7(y+2)+3y = 54
=> 7y+14+3y = 54
=> 10y = 54-14
=> 10y = 40
<em>Dividing both sides by 10</em>
=> y = 4
<em>Now putting y = 4 in eq(2)</em>
=> x = 2+4
=> x = 6
