Since each sister is 2 years apart, the middle sister is the average age. If we take 42 and divide it by 3, we get the middle(Samantha's) age.  If Smantha is 14, we add 2 to get Lauren's age...16 and we subtract 2 to get Emily's age...12.

so we have...12, 14, 16 = 42

Emily is 12, Samantha is 14, and Lauren is 16. Basically all you do to solve this problem is add numbers that are two apart until you find something. 

Ex. 2+4+6=12  4+6+8=18 so on and so forth.

What is 66% of $1,678.89 plus 7.5% tax?
schepotkina [342]
50% of 1,678.89 = 839.445
10% = 167.889
5% = 83.9445
1% = 16.7889
.5% = 8.39445
Therefore 66% = 1108.0674
and 7.5% = 125.91675
So the two added together is: 1233.98415
To get the percentages simply do the following
50% = divide by two
10% = divide 50% by five OR divide the original number by 10
5% = divide 10% by two or divide 50% by 10
1% = divide 5% by 5 or divide original by 100
.5% = divide 1% by two
