Remember PEMDAS - parentheses, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract
because multiply come before subtract, your first step would be 1/2 x 2 = 1
next, you subtract -> 15 - 1 = 14
14 is your answer
Ali saves Rs 2576 every month
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given Ali's monthly salary = Rs 18400. Calculate the amount spent on food articles
Amount spent on food = 30% of 18400 = 30/100 × 18400 = Rs 5520
- Step 2: Find the remaining amount.
Remaining amount = 18400 - 5520 = Rs 12880
- Step 3: Find amount spend on conveyance and clothes
Amount spent on conveyance and clothes = 40% of 12880
= 40/100 × 12880 = Rs 5152
- Step 4: Find his monthly savings.
Monthly savings = 50% of 5152 = 50/100 × 5152 = Rs 2576
The new parking lot must hold twice as many cars as the previous parking lot. The previous parking lot could hold 56 cars. So this means the new parking lot must hold 2 x 56 = 112 cars
Let y represent the number of cars in each row, and x be the number of total rows in the parking lot. Since the number of cars in each row must be 6 less than the number of rows, we can write the equation as:
y = x - 6 (1)
The product of cars in each row and the number of rows will give the total number of cars. So we can write the equation as:
xy = 112 (2)
Using the above two equations, the civil engineer can find the number of rows he should include in the new parking lot.
Using the value of y from equation 1 to 2, we get:
x(x - 6) = 112 (3)
This equation is only in terms of x, i.e. the number of rows and can be directly solved to find the number of rows that must in new parking lot.
