Answer:
Both Oscar and Kim will have enough to purchase the book.
Step-by-step explanation:
Oscar takes 30% of the normal price and subtracts it from the normal price. Out of 100% price he takes 30% so the result is: 100-30%= 70% of the normal price. Oscar's first step has the same result as Kim.
Oscar takes 10% of the discounted price (70%) and adds it back. The price will become 70% + 10%*70%= 77% of original price. Kim multiplies the discounted price with 110%, so the price will be: 70% * 110%= 77%. Both also give the same result.
The final price is 77% of the original, it will be: $28.50* 77%= $21.945
Oscar :
28.50 - 0.30(28.50) = 28.50 - 8.55 = 19.95
0.10(19.95) + 19.95 = 2 + 19.95 = 21.95
Kim :
0.7(28.50) = 19.95
1.10(19.95) = 21.95
Answer:
If this question is so easy then why are you asking us do it yourself
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
16%
percentage is calculated by 100
A. 2500 × 1/100 = 25%
B. 4100 x 1/100 = 41%
41% - 25%
16%
therefore bridge A is 16% shorter than bridge B
Answer: the school paid $80 for the book.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount that the school paid for the book.
Her school charges a lost book fee equal to 75% of the cost of the book. It means that the amount that the school would charge on a book that cost $x is
75/100 × x = 0.75 × x = 0.75x
Sarah received a notice stating that she owed the school $60 for he lost book. It means that
0.75x = 60
x = 60/0.75
x = $80
