7/10x - 5 = 1/2x
7/10x - 1/2x = 5
7/10x - 5/10x = 5
2/10x = 5
x = 5 / (2/10)
x = 5 * 10/2
x = 50/2
x = 25 gallons <===
Answer:
I think it's C.
Step-by-step explanation:
hope you get it right
Let, that number = x
It would be: x * 0.65 = 52
x = 52 / 0.65
x = 80
So, that number and your answer is 80
Hope this helps!
Since 300 is 100%, you treat it as such.
300/(100/70) = 210 (rounded)
You do a similar thing for 600
1/4 of 100 is 25
100/25 = 4
600 / 4 = 150
70% of 300 is more.
