Percent formula : is/of = %/100
is = 12
of = 60
% = x
now we sub
12/60 = x/100
cross multiply
(60)(x) = (12)(100)
60x = 1200
x = 1200/60
x = 20
check..
0.20(60) = 12
12 = 12 (correct)
so 20% of 60 is 12
A because it is the opposite of statement B
First, square the entire problem. Then add the n's and subtract 10 from 5. You will then get 2n-5=0. Add 5 to both sides, then divide by two to get the answer. (2n=5, n=2.5)
EXPLANATION:
Cost of 8 tickets= $214
Therefore cost of each ticket= 214/8 = $26.75
ANSWER: $26.75
These. 2 fractions r not equivalent. to see it, just simplify them. as 72 could be divided by 9, we can change it to 7.875/9, just divide both by 8, because u know, 9x8 = 72. as you can see, 7.875/9 IS NOT 6/9. so they're not equivalent.
