It would be 8 because 3 less than 8.
Hope this helps! :D
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:
2/3 or 0.67
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = y2 - y1 /x2 - x1
Given
x1 = 1
y1 = 8
x2 = 9
y2 = 12
Slope = 12 - 8 /9 - 1
= 4/6
Reduce is by 2
2/3
Or
0.67
