The correct answer to this question would be answer choice B.
To convert the decimal 0.56 to a fraction, first set it to a fraction over 100 which would be 56/100.
Then, because the question asks for the fraction to be in simplest form, look for the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator or 56 and 100.
To find it, list out all of their factors:
56: 1, 2, 4, 7, 8 , 14, 28, 56
100: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10,20,25,50,100
Notice that out of all the factors listed, the greatest common factor listed is 4. Because of this, divide both the numerator and denominator by 4 to simplify your fraction to your answer: 14/25
Markup means they sell it for that percentage more than they bought it for. First let's calculate how much they will mark it up for:

Convert 87% into a decimal(87/100):

Multiply:

This is how much they'll mark it up, now let's add it to how much they bought it for to find out the selling price:
Answer: $45,050
Step-by-step explanation:
First we multipy 0.06 (6%) by 42,500
$42,500 * 0.06 = $2550
This is the tax that must be applied to $42,500
Now all we need to do is add $2,550to $42,500 and we get:
$42,500 + $2,550 = $45,050
Answer: My internet connection is not good enough.
Step-by-step explanation: This one may be pretty commonly used but also a common problem people always have and it's pretty unavoidable. Tell her that the call\meeting gets super laggy and then ends up freezing and that doing it over voice is a better option for you so you can get the best learning experience or something like that. Basically pretend you care until he\she believes it.
Good luck <3 Let me know if you need another!
