Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. (flipped version)
6 and 9 are both divisible by 3, so we can simplify 6/9 = 2/3.
We can multiply across right now, but we might as well cross cancel.
Look at the numbers diagonal from one another...-3 and 3 are both divisible by 3, so we can change them to -1 and 1...2 and 2 are both divisible by 2, so we can change them to 1 and 1...
Any fraction over 1 can just be expressed as a whole number.
Our final answer...
If you were to multiply across, (maybe you don't like cross cancelling, idk?) you'd get the same answer, of course.

Answer:
Lets say you have "100" apples.
If you lost 50% of those 100 apples, (50 apples) and then half of them went rotten, then no, it wouldn't be the same. But if you picked them all back up, and none of them were damaged, then yes, they would stay the original amount.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi!
<u>Info:</u>
- 15% in decimal form is <em>0.15</em> because 15/100 = 0.15
- The washing machine was originally 270 dollars; it was reduced by 15%
First, we have to figure out how much the original price is being deducted by.
<u>We can multiply the reduction percentage (in decimal form) by the original price to find out the actual reduction:</u>
Plug that into a calculator and you get:
<h3>Remember, that is only the amount of the reduction, <u><em>
not the sale price.</em></u></h3>
To get the new price, we need to subtract the reduction (40.5) from the original price (270):
<h3>
Therefore, the sale price of the washing machine is $229.50</h3>
