Answer: She had 200 cards to start with
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the amount of cards she had initially. This means she had x cards to start with.
She gave half of the cards she had to a friend. This means she gave her friend x/2 cards. She is left with with (x-x/2) = x/2 cards.
She also gave 1/4 of the remaining cards to her brother. This means that she gave (1/4 × x/2) = x/8 cards to her brother.
Remaining number of cards will be x/2 - x/8 = (4x-x)/8 = 3x/8
She still has 75 cards left. This means
3x/8 = 75
Cross multiplying with 8, it becomes
3x = 75×8 = 600
x = 600/3 = 200
She had 200 cards to start with.
<span>Question:
441 is 63% of what number?
=> 63% = 63% / 100% = 0.63
Since 441 is the 63% let’s find the value of 37% to get the toal of 100%
Solution, follow the formula
=> 0.63x = 441 – where x will be the value of the missing 100% value.
=> x = 441 / 0.63
=> x = 700 – the 100% value that have 441 as 63%
let’s check if we have the correct answer:
=> 700 * .63 = 441 </span>
