Divide the 10 by 4, which makes the x be 2.5. You can check it by multiplying 4 by 2.5, which will give you 10.
A % is out of a hundred, so you don't need the %/100. Then, you wouldn't do cross multiplication, you would just divide 15/27. Remember, it would be 15/27 because it's percent markup, not the percent the price increased by. So, doing that simple calculation on a calculator you get 0.5555. This converted to a percent is just moving the decimal to the right twice, or multiplied by a 100. That would give you 55.55%, and that's your answer. Make sense?
Answer:
14/19
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that there are two " - " signs here. Thus, the end result will be " + "
We move from left to right, obtaining first 10/19 divided by (5/7):
10
----- ÷ (5/7)
19
To divide by (5/7), invert (5/7) and then multiply. We get:
10 7 2(7)
----- * ----- = ------- = 14/19
19 5 19
