the correct answer is 2.40
1.22 / 1,22
because:
100% of 100 is 100. You multiplied it by one.
110% of 100 is 110. You multiplied it by 1.1 / 1,1
So if you want to multiply by a percentage between 100 and 200 you have to multiply by a number between 1 and 2.
Answer: The fraction 301/900
Note: I'm assuming the 4's continue on forever
==============================================
Work Shown:
I'm going to assume that the 4s go on forever. I'll represent this with three dots after the last 4 like so
0.334444...
Now let x = 0.334444...
Multiply both sides by 100
x = 0.334444...
100x = 100*(0.334444...)
100x = 33.444444...
And repeat with 1000
x = 0.334444...
1000x = 1000*(0.334444...)
1000x = 334.444444...
Then subtract and solve for x. Notice how the decimal parts line up and cancel
1000x-100x = (334.444444...) - (33.444444...)
1000x-100x = (334+0.444444...) - (33+0.444444...)
1000x-100x = 334+0.444444... - 33 - 0.444444...
1000x-100x = (334-33)+(0.444444... - 0.444444...)
900x = 334 - 33
900x = 301
x = 301/900
Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
7 - 5p + 3q
p = 1, q = 7
Substitute in the values of "p" and "q", and solve;
7 - 5(1) + 3(7)
7 - 5 + 21
2 + 21
23
