5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let original price be x

Price after 40% discount is $201

Therefore

x × 40% = $201

x = 201 ÷ (40/100)

x = 502.5

Therefore, the original price is $502.5

Claude purchased a container of peanuts that weighs 4 kilograms. Taryn purchased a container of peanuts that weighs 4,100 grams.

Vilka [71]

Answer: 100 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, Claude purchased a container of peanuts that weighs 4 kilograms. We can convert this to grams and it'll be:

= 4 × 1000 grams = 4000 grams.

Taryn purchased a container of peanuts that weighs 4,100 grams. The difference will then be:

= 4100 grams - 4000 grams

= 100 grams

Taryn bought 100 grams more.
