You need to calculate 12% of 800.
To find a percent of a number, multiply the percent by the number.
Change the percent into a decimal by dividing the percent by 100 (move the decimal point of the percent two places to the left.)
12% of 800 =
= 12% * 800
= 0.12 * 800
= 96
Answer: 96 students
She earns 20 dollars as a carpenter and 25 dollars as a blacksmith
b+c=30 hours since she works 30 hours a week
25b+20c=690 since she earns 690 dollar totally and earns 25 dollars an hour as a blacksmith and 20 dollars an hour as a carpenter
lets multiply b+c=30 by -20
-20b-20c=-600
if we substract that from
25b+20c=690
5b=90
b=18 she worked as a blacksmith for 18 hours
Um, I don't know if I actually answered the question, but I think that the second one is cheaper to rent.
Since .68 is 68/100, you can simplify to 17/25.
