Alright, so if we divide fractions we get
(x/y)/(a/b)= (x/y)*(b/a). If the x is 5 and the a is 6, as well as y and b being the same therefore cancelling out, we can write it easily. For example, we can write (5/100)/(6/100) or (5/60)/(6/60)
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
To solve this equation, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation to see what it equals.
As you can see, 2.7 is added. To get it onto the other side and cancel it from the one side, you will subtract it from both sides as shown below. Note that because of the commutative property, we can switch the places of 2.7 and x.
x+2.7-2.7=17-2.7 (Note that 2.7=2.7 is 0 in this equation.
x=14.3
Our solution is x=14.3
I hope this helped you learn how to solve equations a bit better!
Multiply the cost of the meal by 0.15 ( 15% as a decimal).
8.95 x 0.15 = 1.34
The amount of the discount would be $1.34
Extra:
If you need to find out how much a senior citizen pays, you would subtract the amount of the discount from the original price:
8.95 - 1.34 = $7.61
