Answer:
Raymond's mistake was on the last step, since he didn't square root both sides
The correct answer should be
Step-by-step explanation:
Good luck!
Find out what number goes into 8 and 10 then figure out how many times that number goes into 100
So that would be the same thing as 5 4/5 - 3 2/7
Put them in mixed fractions to become 29/5 - 23/7
Multiply one side by 7 and one side by 5 to get the same denominator
203/35 - 115/35
Now subtract the numerators to get
88/35
Or if they want it inixed numbers then 2 18/35
Let c represent the original amount that this guy had saved up.
He spent 25% of this amount, or 0.25c, on the printer.
To progress further, we have to know how much the printer cost.
Supposing that the printer cost $100 (which we do not know as a fact), this would be equal to 0.25c.
Thus, his savings originally amounted to c = $100/0.25 = $400.
