HI! The answer to that is 60 marbles.

\frac{24}{60} =  \frac{4}{10}

40% = .4 because % means hundredths. So 40% = 40/100 = .4

Let x be the total number of marbles.

Then, .4x = 24

  Divide both sides by .4

          x = 60 and 24 is 40% of 60 marbles

Subtract:<br> 7' 5" – 2' 8" =
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

4'9"

Method 1:

First, convert both numbers into inches. Remember that 1' = 12", and the rest is like a remainder.

7'5" = (7*12)+5 = 84+5 = 89

2'8" = (2*12)+8 = 24+8 = 32

Next, subtract the two numbers.

89 - 32 = ?

89 - 32 = 57

There's your answer! You can change it back into feet by dividing it by 12.

57 / 12 = 4.75 = 4'9"

Method 2:

Another way of solving this problem is to borrow from the "feet" place.

7'5" - 2'8"

You can't take 8 away from 5, so you borrow from the "feet" place. Remember that unlike normal borrowing, you need to add 12 instead of adding 10.

6'17" - 2'8" = 4'9"

Whichever method you choose, you should get the same answer!

Matthew deposits $400 into an account that earns 7% interest compounded quarterly. What is the balance in his account after 10 y
user100 [1]

Answer:

$787

Step-by-step explanation:

In terms of interest

To find the multiplier using '7% more' continues as follows

100% + 7% = 107%

107/100 = 1.07 (multiplier)

Add the ten years as a power to the multiplier

1.07^10

And multiply this by $400

400 x 1.07^10 = 786.860542916

To the nearest dollar = $787
