John’s father will pay $300.
If you divide $500 into 5 equal parts, each part will be comprised of $100. In other words, 1/5 of $500 is $100. This is proven because $100 • 5 = $500.
But since you are trying to find 3/5 of $500, (not 1/5, which is what we just found). This means we must find the total value of 3 of the five equal parts. To do this, multiply
$100 • 3, since $100 is 1/5 of $500.
$100 • 3=$300, so the answer is B. Johns father will pay $300.
60 payments of $496.77 add to 29,806.20, so the finance charges amount to
.. $29806.20 -24500.00 = $5,306.20
500 each because there's only 2 boxes
You should multiply 2 at a time and not try to do them at the same time also if the fraction numbers a high you can cross simplify the numbers so multiplying them won't be as hard. so, for example, 8/12*16/36*50/100 you can simplify 8/12 to 2/3 16/36 to 4/9 50/100 to 1/2 then you can multiply 2/3*4/9 and then 8/27*1/2 to equal 8/54 and you can still simplify 8/54 to 4/27
The basketball player attempted to do 15 baskets.
He made 9 of these baskets.
You must write a ratio that says:
attempted baskets:baskets made
Since he attempted 15 baskets and made 9 baskets, the answer would be:
15:9
