Answer:
$300 was the regular price of the sofa.
Step-by-step explanation:
If $219 is 27% less than the regular price, then it represents 73% of the regular price.
Regular price = r.
r/1 x 73/100 = $219. Reverse this to find that $219/1 divided by 73/100 = r.
To divide fractions, reverse the second fraction and MULTIPLY:
$219/1 x 100/73 = 21900/73 = 300.
The answer is 45 because 2.50 times 18=45
You would subtract the tax first which 62.99-2.99=60$. Then you would divide the $60 left by 6 and 60 divided by 6 equals 10 so each shirt costs $10.
You can either do;
1. 90(2) = 100(2)
180 = 200
In 3 minutes, they can write 200 words. So now we can divide by 3.
3/3 = 1 minute
200/3 ≈ 66.666
or
2. 90/3 = 30 secs
100/3 ≈ 33.333
30(2) = 1 minute
33.333(2) ≈ 66.666
Either way, the admin assistant can write 67 words per minute. (Rounded to the nearest whole)
