Assume that the number of leaves raked by Adam is x.
Tapiwa raked 5% more leaves than Adam, this means that:
Leaves raked by Tapiwa = x + 0.05x = 1.05x liters
We are given that the total number of raked leaves is 697 liters.
This means that:
Total raked = raked by Adam + raked by Tapiwa
697 = x + 1.05x
697 = 2.05x
x = 697 / 2.05
x = 340
Based on the above calculations:
Adam raked 340 liters of leaves
Tapiwa raked 1.05(340) = 357 liters of leaves
Y is greater than or equal to 0
Answer:
He brought 3 dozen cookies
She ate 
of the bag of Doritos
She read 25 books
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ Mike makes 4 dozen cookies
∵ He brings 75% of them for a party at his school
- Multiply 75% by 4
∵ 75% = 
∴ He brought = 
× 4
∴ He brought = 3
He brought 3 dozen cookies
∵ Sam bought a bag of Doritos
∵ She ate only 40% of them
∵ 40% = 
∴ She ate = × 1
∴ She ate =
She ate of the bag of Doritos
∵ Jamie took 50 books from the library
∵ She only read half of her whole stack
- Multiply half by 50
∴ She read = 
× 50
∴ She read = 25
She read 25 books
Answer:
1.994
Step-by-step explanation:
"Percent" means "per 100" or "over 100". To convert 199.4% to a decimal rewrite 199.4 percent in terms of per 100 or over 100.
199.4% = 199.4 over 100 or,
199.4%=199.4100
199.4 over 100 is the same as 199.4 divided by 100. Completing the division we get:
199.4 ÷ 100 = 1.994
Therefore, we have shown that
199.4% = 1.994
Simplified Conversion:
Remove the percent sign % and divide by 100.
199.4 ÷ 100 = 1.994
Shortcut Conversion:
Move the decimal point 2 places to the left and remove the percent sign %
199.4% becomes 1.994
