Your problem is:
$35.00 is what percentage of $437.50?
If you are given a part and the whole, and you want to know what percent the part is of the whole, divide the part by the whole and multiply by 100.
In this case, the whole is $437.50.
The part is $35.00.
35/437.5 * 100 = 8%
To decide which one is the better deal, you need to compare them on price per ear. So, the the first vendor is $2.56/8ears= $0.32/ear
the second vendor: $4.32/12 = $0.36/ear
The first vendor with the bag of 8 ears is the better deal!
Since this is a right triangle, you can use the main trig functions sin, cos, and tan. We must use sin for this problem because sin= opp/hyp. Plug in the numbers to this function. Sin (53) = a/25. Thus when you cross multiply, you get a= sin (53) x 25. When you plug it into a calculator the answer should come out to 19.97
