Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
48% of n = 0.48n = 40.32
n = 84
20% of n = 0.20*84 = 16.8
I hope you mean 1/5 when you say 1 5. If that's what you mean, then both, Joshua and Melanie, are correct because, both of their equations are the same.
Joshua's - <span>8 ÷ 1/5 = 40 (Since we can divide a number by fraction, we use this rule: keep, change flip. When we use that Joshua's equation turns into 8 * 5/1 = 8*5 = 40, same as Melanie's.)</span>

plug that in your calculator, make sure the calculator is in Degree mode
108-271+215-_____=-103
Im going to combine the first thee numbers and replace the blank with a variable, lets use x.
52 - x=-103
now I am going to subtract 52 on both sides to get the variable alone
-x=-155
Im going to multiply both sides to eliminate the negitive in the variable
x=155
If you want to check just plug 155 into the blank
108-271+215-155=-103
-163+215-155=-103
52-155=-103
-103=-103
so after checking work the blank is equal to 155.
