1,710/3 = 570 <== this is just simple division...nothing a calculator can't do.
For this, we can set up a proportion.
Their aim was 15000, so if they raised 100% of their goal, they wouldve raised exactly 15000.
They raised 557%, so how much did they make?
Proportion:
$15000 100%
$x 557%
Our expression would be x=$15000*557% divided by 100%, which would be $83550, so... a lot of money.
(we did an “x” formation with the proportion, ie “connected” x with 100, and “connected” 15k and 557. The number connecting to x is what we divide the equation by, and the other two are multiplied and then divided by the first number connecting to x. Otherwise we couldve calculated 557% of 15000 and gotten the same result. Whichever way is easier for you :) )
We can follow the following steps to make an equation and solve it.
Step 1:
five less than 13 means we have to subtract 5 from 13
so it becomes 13-5
Step 2:
A number y is five less than thirteen.
Now in algebraic expressions, "is" stands for "="
So we have:

Step 3:
Solving the equation to find y.

Subtracting 5 from 13, we get :
y=8
Answer:
For the given equation the solution is y=8.
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
3 and 5 are not common denominators so you have to find the lowest common denominator which is 15 because 3 times 5 is 15
