Answer:

The rate of markdown it would have to offer is 27.3%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of sofa was, OP = $880.

The new price of sofa is, NP = $640

The change in price is:

Change=OP-NP\\=880-640\\=240

The rate of markdown offered by the shopkeeper is:

Rate\ of\ markdown=\frac{Change\ in\ Price}{Orignal\ Price}\times100 \\=\frac{240}{880}\times100\\ =0.27273\times100\\\approx27.3\%

Thus, the rate of markdown offered by the shopkeeper is 27.3%.

If Lebron can run 12 laps in 2 hours, approximately how long will it take him to run 60 laps?
ddd [48]

Answer:

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion using the following setup.

hours/laps=hours/laps

We know that it takes him 2 hours to run 12 laps. We don't know how long it will take him to run 60 laps, so we can say it takes x hours to run 60 laps.

2 hours/12 laps=x hours/60 laps

2/12=x/60

We want to find out what x is. In order to do this, we have to get x by itself. Perform the opposite of what is being done to the equation. Keep in mind, everything done to one side, has to be done to the other.

x is being divided by 60. The opposite of division is multiplication, so multiply both sides by 60.

60*2/12=x/60*60

60*2/12=x

10=x

It will take Lebron 10 hours to run 60 laps.
