Answer:

'<em>We </em><u>cross</u><em> </em><u>multiplied</u><em> it'</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets first understand our proportion and re write in correct Fraction form as:

\frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}     Eqn(1).

where:

a and c are the Numerators

b and d are the Denominators

Now the question sais that Eqn(1). can be written as

ad=bc

This is true since here:

'<em>We </em><u>cross</u><em> </em><u>multiplied</u><em> it'</em>.

<em>Cross Multiplication is used when we have equations of the form Eqn(1) where there is one fraction on the left hand side and one fraction on the right hand side, so that the Numerator of the left hand side is multiplied with the Denominator of the right hand side and similarly the Denominator of the left hand side is multiplied with the Numerator of the right hand side (like a diagonal multiplication).   </em>

The sale price of an item on sale for 40% off is $48. What was the regular price?
Charra [1.4K]

Good evening ,

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

<h2>the regular price of the item is $80.</h2>

<u><em>Step-by-step explanation:</em></u>

Let p represent the regular price of the item.

p - p×(40/100) = 48 ⇌ p×(1 - 40/100) = 48 ⇌ p×(100/100 - 40/100) = 48

⇌ p×(60/100) = 48 ⇌ p = (480×100)/60 = 48 000/60 = 80.
