Geometric because the answer is being halved
Sent a picture of the solution to the problem (s). I took a guess at what it asked.
Answer:
<u>23.53%</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u> :
- food costs = $2,000
- total food sales = $8,500
<u>Solving</u> :
- Food costs / Total Food Sales
- 2000/8500
- 4/17
- 0.2353
- <u>23.53%</u>
In order to solve this we need to make on part of both statements equal.
Since 12 is divisible by 6 lets do that.
Multiply everything in the second package by 2.
It then becomes 6 pairs for $12.
So now have have 6 or 8 pairs for $12.
You are getting a different amount for the same price therefore they are not proportional.
