4/5x + 4/3 = 2x....there are 2 ways to do this...one with fractions, one without.
with :
4/5x + 4/3 = 2x
4/3 = 2x - 4/5x
4/3 = 10/5x - 4/5x
4/3 = 6/5x
4/3 * 5/6 = x
20/18 = x
10/9 = x
without :
4/5x + 4/3 = 2x....multiply by common denominator of 15
12x + 20 = 30x
20 = 30x - 12x
20 = 18x
20/18 = x
10/9 = x
Answer: Purchase Price: $85. Discount: (85 x 24)/100 = $20.40
Final Price:

Answer:
$5,940
Step-by-step explanation:
x/22 000 = 27/100
(part/whole)=(%/100)
(x)(100)=(22)(22 000)
Butterfly Method
100x=594 000
Divide by 100 on both sides to get x
x=5940
