Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional, and this ratio is called the scale factor
In this problem

Rewrite

Answer: 57%
Step-by-step explanation:
An easy way is to do this
the 2 numbers are -x and x+8 where x is an integer
we can generate lots of numbers this way
example
-1 and 9
-2 and 10
Your answer is $30,000.
The way I have answered this is quite strange, but I'll do my best to explain it. So because we know that $30,900 is 3% than last year, we can call it 103%. This allows us to form a ratio and therefore find 100%.
30,900 : 103
÷ 103
300 : 1
× 100
30,000 : 100
Which means $30,000 is 100%, or 3% less than $30,900. I hope this helps! Let me know if it was confusing or anything :)
