Lets say x = 89.99 and y = 56.49
P% * x = y
P% = y/x
56.49/89.99 = 0.6277
0.6277 * 100 = 62.77
But because we are looking for how much off the sale is:
100% - 62.77%
= 37.23%
The sale price is 37.23% off.
Answer:
540 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
60 miles per 1 hour
120 per 2 hours... etc.
multiply 60 and 9 to get 540
Product of 4 and a number translates to 4x because the word product means multiplication.
We then need to subtract one from that which would be 4x - 1.
The word is translates to "equals" so 4x - 1 = 11 is the translation of the whole problem.
Now solve that equation.
4x - 1 = 11
1st add +1 +1
2nd simplify 4x = 12
3rd divide. 4 4
x = 3
Answer:
87.4%
Step-by-step explanation:
The radius to the top of the atmosphere as a fraction of the moon's radius is ...
(2575 +600)/2575 ≈ 1.23301
The ratio of the moon's volume with atmosphere to the moon's volume without is the cube of this, or 1.87456
Then the ratio of the atmosphere's volume to the moon's volume is ...
(1.87456 -1)/1 = 0.87456
Atmospheric haze is about 87.4% of the moon's volume.
_____
We have assumed that the desired ratio is to the solid moon's volume, not the volume of moon and atmosphere together. The latter ratio would be 0.875 to 1.875 or about 46.7%.
