This is fairly simple. Divide 2,871,000 by 10 and that's your answer!

Also, since you're dividing by a factor of 10 (or in this case, <em>10</em>) you can just take away as many places as are zeros in the number you're dividing from. This works for <em>10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, etc. </em>In this case, since there is only one zero in 10 you only take away one place marking, which gives you 287,100.
Answer:
$80, $48
Step-by-step explanation:
The original price was x.
The price is reduced by 40%. The markdown is 40% of x, or 0.4x.
The actual dollar amount of the markdown is $32.
That means that 0.4x must equal $32.
We set up an equation and solve for x, the original price.
0.4x = 32
Divide both sides by 0.4
x = 32/0.4
x = 80
The original price is $80.
The markdown is $32.
$80 - $32 = $48
The marked down price is $48.
Answer: $80, $48
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
(a+b)^2
(a+b)(a+b)
FOIL
a^2 + ab+ab + b^2
Combine like terms
a^2 +2ab + b^2
Rearranging
a^2+b^2 +2ab
We know a^2+b^2 = 4 and ab= 5
4 + 2(5)
4+10
14
19.47 is the answer. 29.5 * .66 or 66% is 19.47
