Answer:

If there are 125 girls, and the ratio is boys to girls, then you can divide 125 by 5 to get the multiplication factor. This would be 25. Now you can multiply 25 by 4 to get how many boys were in the gym, which would be 100. To get back to your original ratio, you can divide 100/125 by 25 on top and bottom to get 4:5, or 4/5. :)

What percent of discount should be given in a doll costing Rs 180

wolverine [178]

Answer:

11.11%

Step-by-step explanation:

So the question is:

$180 * (x)% = $y

Therefore $180 - $y = $160

Now:

180 - 160 = 20

Therefore; $20 is the discount

Now per cent of discount:

20/180 * 100 = 11.111111111111111111111%

therefore: per cent of discount is 11.11% (rounded to two decimal place)
