Answer: y=6
Step-by-step explanation:
First distribute... 9p-36=18
then add 36 to the 18 to help isolate the variable..
9p=54
then to get the variable by itself divide 54 by 9 and get 6
N% x 1.60 = 6 (I turned it from English to math)
Can't move n% back two places to make it a decimal so I will move the number I am multiplying by n% back two places instead.
Here is a sample to show you why it works. .34 x 57 = 34 x .57
So
.016n = 6 (.016 is 1.60 decimal moved back two places)
Now divide both sides by .016
<u>.016</u>n = <u>6
</u><u />.016 .016 n = 375%
Why is the percent over 100% you might ask?
What % of 1.60 is 1.60 (Answer - all of it or 100%)
So What % of 1.60 is 6 - the number 6 being much bigger than 1.60, it is not surprising that the percent is more than 100.
What % of 1.60 is 1.60 - 100%
What % of 1.60 is 3.20 - 200% (notice that 3.20 is twice 1.60)
What % of 1.6 is 4.80 - 300% (notice that 4.80 is three times 1.60)
What % of 1.6 is 6.40 - 400% (notice that 6.40 is four times 1.60)
6 (the number in the problem) is just a bit less than 6.40 so 375% makes a lot a sense.

Answer: $400
Step-by-step explanation:
So first you set it up in a equation. You put the amount she put in the bank over x (the x represents her full salary) which equals the percent she already spent over her full salary. That would be 120/x=30/100 you would then cross-multiply to get 12,000 = 30x. you then divide 30 from both sides to get x =400.
Answer:
your answer is 14/15.
you get that by deciding on the least common multiple, which is 15, then you adjust the fractions so you can add them together.
