Answer:

256.25

Step-by-step explanation:

if you have a 20% discount then you are paying 80% if the original cost.

so 80% of the original price is 205

.80x = 205

x = 205/.80

State whether the following is reasonable or not. Explain your answer. Josefina gave away 130% of her stamp collection.
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

The statement is not reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Josefina gave away 130% of her stamp collection.

We cannot give more than what we have.

lets understand it mathematically.

suppose i have x stamp.

according to question, i have to give 130% of my stamp collection

130% of x = 130/100 x = 1.3x

so, i have to given 1.3x stamp while i do have only x stamp which does not make any sense.

maximum i can give is x stamp.

x stamp in percentage of my total stamp collection which is also x will be

= x/x*100 = 100%

Thus, maximum one can give is 100% of what he has.

Thus, we can say that Josefina gave away 130% of her stamp collection is not reasonable.

Convert 1.25 into fraction​
umka21 [38]
In order to express 1.25 as a fraction we will first try to remove the decimal
As 1.25 has two numbers after the decimal point, we will divide it by 100 in order to remove the decimal.
Hence, we get 1.25 equals 125/100
Now, dividing both sides by a common factor of 25, we get 125/100 =5/4
Thus, 1.25 as a fraction is 5/4!
