Both elevations or numbers are already expressed as a
rational number. This is because a rational number is defined as a number that
can be expressed as a quotient or fraction of two numbers:
p / q
Since in this case, q may be equal to 1, then both are
rational numbers.
Answer:
£ 631
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi this is a simple mathematics issue.
First, let's imagine what is 3%. '3 percents' means 3/100. If your family have 100 apples and you have 3 apples, that means you have 3% of your family apples.
Now, get back to this problem. We need to find the price before increase. Let's say the price was £ X. Now we will find the X number.
It's said that the price was increased by 3%. That means they took 3% of X and added that amount to X to have the new price : £ 650. That means we have this equation :
650 = X + 3%×X
Let's make it easier to look :
650 = X + 3/100 ×X
650 = X×( 1+ 3/100)
= X × 103/100
So we can see 650 is equaled to X multipled by 103/100.
To find the correct answer, simply divide 650 by 103/100.
*A hint: When you divide a number by a fraction, you can simply put the number multiplied by the "flipped" fraction .

no, this is false. 1 is greater than 12/20.
