7.5% of 160.
12 / 160 = 0.075
Move decimal 2 places to the left to convert it to a percent, or multiple by 100.
0.075 * 100 = 7.5
7.5% is your answer.
Answer: 98.1%
Explanation:
A 10% sale means that the post-sale price of the item is now 90%, or 0.9 of the original cost of the item. We then apply 9% sales tax by multiplying the 0.9 by 109%, or 1.09. 0.9 * 1.09 = .981, so the total cost of the item is 98.1% of the original pre-sale sticker price.
For percentage problems that do not deal with a specific starting number, it is always helpful to plug in 100 for the starting number. Here, we would then have a post-sale price of 90 dollars, and if we calculate the sales tax for the 90-dollar item it would be 90 * 0.09 = $8.10. THis gives us a total cost of 90 + 8.10 = $98.10, or 98.1% of the original 100-dollar price.
First you need to write an equation or an inequality.
5+1.80x<=12
the x here is how many miles you are paying for, now you just solve for x.
5+1.80x<=12
-5 -5
1.80x<=7
/1.80 /1.80
x<=3.8
you can travel only three whole miles, you do not have enough money to go four full miles.
Hold on let me go do my research I’ll brb .
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
