They are incorrect because when going from percent to decimal, you divide the percent by 100 and when going from decimal to percent you multiply the decimal by 100. So in the case of 14.5%... divide 14.5% by 100 to get .145. The correct decimal is .145 not 14.5.
Answer:
Let the width of the Rectangle be x inches
Then, length is (3x-5) inches
Perimeter of the Rectangle= 46 inches (given)
According to the above problem,
Equation :---- Perimeter=2(length+breadth)
<u>2{(3x-5)+x}=46</u>
2(4x-5)=46
(4x-5)=46/2=23
4x=(23+5)=28
x=28/4
<u>x=7</u>
So, length of the Rectangle is {(3×7)-5}=16 inches
and width is= 7 inches

Hello there the answer to your question would be 60. Since 150-(60%*150) = 150 - 60 *150 = (1-60%)*150 = (100%-60%) * 150= 40% * 150 = 40/100 * 150 = 40 * 150 ÷ 100 = 6000/100 = 60. Hope this helps you out, have a great day!
