Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's call this number n. Here is the info we can write about it. Remember that to write as a percent as a decimal you divide by 100.

n-0.16n=159.6

We combine like terms.

0.84n=159.6

We divide both sides by 0.84

n=190

Have a wonderful day! :D

Which weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of bricks?
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

They both weigh the same amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

A pound of feathers would land and wouldn't hurt, but a pound of bricks would hurt.

Since they both are exactly one pound, if that is the only question and it's a one-part question then there's your answer.
