1/2% of 4000 miles Find percent please and show work

Mathematics
1 answer:
bonufazy [111]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

  20 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

It is useful to remember that % means /100, and that 1% = 1/100.

Here, you want 1/2% × 4000. The associative property of multiplication lets you rearrange this to ...

  (1/2)% × 4000 = (1/2) × 1% × 4000

  = 1/2 × (1/100 × 4000) = 1/2 × 4000/100

  = 1/2 × 40 = 20 . . . miles

_____

If you refuse to be intimidated by percentages, you can do this math in your head.

natulia [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question has typographical errors. The equation is 2a + b = 15.7, not 2e+b-15.7

2a + b = 15.7

b = 15.7  - 2a

since a > b, a = 6.3 cm

b = 15.7 - 2·6.3 = 3.1 cm
