If we know that 128 is 74% of something, we can write it like this:
74%x=128.
If we take the percent away (percent means by hundred in latin, 1%=1/100), we'll have
74/100 *x=128
//let's multiply both sides by 100, that way we can get rid of the ugly "/100 because 100/100 = 1, and we can ignore 1 in multiplications
100*74/100 *x = 128 *100// let's simplify the left side: 100/100=1
74*x=128*100// let's calculate the right side now
74*x=12800// now we have to divide both sides by 74
x=12800/74
if we divde this, we have: 172 + 72/74. (why? see below)
We can simplify the fraction by division by 2: 172 36/37

To determine the total cost of the books, multiply the amount per book with the number of books. In this example, each book costs one pound and ninety-five pence. Converting 95 pence to pound gives 0.95 pounds. Therefore, the cost of each book is 1.95 pounds. Multiply this amount by six, we get 11.7 pounds. Thus, six books cost 11 pounds and 70 pence.
Answer:
Noah
Step-by-step explanation:
Find how many words each person types in one minute. Andre types 208/4=52 words/min and Noah types 342/6=57 words/min. The answer is Noah.
65 (length of bread originally) - 15(number of centi cut per day) x (the number of days that has passed) = Length of bread after x days
65-15x is the equation
And it’s a continuous function because you can sub in any value at x and you’ll still get a number on the Y-axis!
Hope this helps!
