The error is that he probably forgot the decimal point thus causing him to say '"hundred" instead of "and" for the decimal point.
The ratio 1:2 means there are twice as many dimes as there are quarters. An expression could be n=2d, n being number of quarters, d being number of dimes.
1 out if 20 you would get right
There is 5 questions 4 answers to pick from so 5 times 4 is 20
Then they said what is the probability of only getting one answer right
So the answer would be 1 out of 20 1/20
When you multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number, you get an equivilent fraction
The correct answer is:
How to find X if P percent of it is Y. Use the percentage formula Y/P% = X
Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: Y/P% = X
Y is 26,400, P% is 16%, so the equation is 26,400/16% = X
Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100.
Converting 16% to a decimal: 16/100 = 0.16
Substitute 0.16 for 16% in the equation: 26,400/0.16 = X
Do the math: 26,400/0.16 = X
X = 165,000
So $ 165,000 is the price of the home.
I hope this helps you!!
