Answer:
It is a 50% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
2.4 million /2 = 1.2 million
2.4m + 1.2m = 3.6m
50% of 2.4 is 1.2
it is a +50% increase to get from 2.4 to 3.6
STEP 1:
find the sales tax (decimal form)
x= sales tax
Cost + (Cost * Sales Tax)= Total
plug in known numbers
$9.40 + ($9.40 * x)= $9.87
9.40 + 9.40x= 9.87
subtract 9.40 from both sides
9.40x= 0.47
divide both sides by 9.40
x= 0.47/9.40
x= 0.05 sales tax decimal form
STEP 2:
find sales tax percentage
= 0.05 * 100
or move decimal to the right two decimal places
= 5% sales tax percent form
ANSWER: The sales tax is 5% (or 0.05 in decimal form)
Hope this helps! :)
PLEASE give a picture so we know what your talk about........
$52/(100-15)=$0.6117 is 1 percent of the price
$0.6117*100=$61.17
Last week the price of the shoes was $61.17
We will start off by simplifying 4/8 to 1/2
then we will multiply the fractions because it says "of"
1/2 × 1/6=1/12
therefore the answer is C. 1/12
