Answer:

Part A

The given numbers are 14.25 and 0.86

By multiplying the two numbers, we have;

14.25 × 0.86 = 12.255

By adding the two numbers, we have;

14.25 + 0.86 = 15.11

Therefore, addition gives the greatest solution because one of the number is a fraction less than one

Part B

By dividing the two numbers (Dividing the larger number, 14.25 by the smaller number 0.86), we have 14.25/0.86 ≈ 16.57

Therefore, dividing the larger number by the smaller fraction gives a solution larger than the solution found in part A because the larger number multiplied by (1 - the inverse smaller fraction number) is larger than the value of the smaller (fraction) number

a computer costs 400 dollars. Its 20 percent off with an additional 5 percent off, there's no sales tax. How much does the compu
zhenek [66]

The computer costs $304 now.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of computer = $400

First discount = 20%

Amount of discount = 20% of $400

Amount of discount = \frac{20}{100}*400=\frac{8000}{100}

Amount of discount = $80

Price after first discount = 400-80 = $320

Additional discount = 5%

Amount of additional discount = 5% of price after first discount

Amount of additional discount = \frac{5}{100}*320=\frac{1600}{100}

Amount of additional discount = $16

Final cost = 320-16 = $304

The computer costs $304 now.
