$4 is the original price of the jar consisting of peanut butter so therefor it = 100%. It's for sale at $3.60, so we divide $4 by 100% so we get the percentage for each cent and then we times it by 3.60 to get the percentage for $3.60 which is 90%. Now we subtract 90% from 100% to get the discounted percentage for 40cents :)
13-11 9/20 = 1 11/20 sooo G
Answer:
A & C
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the two expressions that are equivalent to 6.5 ÷ 1.3, you need to solve all of them until you get the two expressions that have a quotient of 5.
Let's begin solving!
65 ÷ 13 = 5
So now we know that A is one of our answers
65 ÷ 130 = 0.5
Not one of our answers because the quotient is not 5
650 ÷ 130 = 5
This is our other answer! We don't need to solve D because we only needed to find two expressions which are A and C.
Hope this helps you :)
so.. as you can see, we use the decimal notation for the percentages... 65% is just 65/100 and 50% is just 50/100 and so on
so.. whatever the salted amounts are, we know they'll add up to (x+175)(0.50)
thus (0.30x) + (175)(0.65) = (x+175)(0.50)
solve for "x"
Complete Question
Sophie pays m dollars to rent a car for the weekend. On the drive home, she buys $45 worth of gasoline. Her friend Melody pays for one-half the cost of the car rental only. Write an expression you could use to determine how much Sophie spent.
Answer:
1/2m + 45
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told in the question that:
On the drive home, she buys $45 worth of gasoline.
Her friend Melody pays for one-half the cost of the car rental only.
Sophie pays m dollars to rent a car for the weekend.
The amount sophie pays for car rental = m - 1/2m
= 1/2m
Therefore, the expression used to determine how much sophie spent is written as:
1/2 × $m + $45
1/2m + 45
