All the fractions that you are subtracting have the same denominator so you just subtract the numerator.2/5-1/5=1/5
3/8-2/8=1/8
79-3/9 since you can simplify 3/9 by 3 you get 1/3 you get 79/1-1/3.the common denominator is 3 so you multiply 79/1 by 3 and 1/3 by 1 and then you get 237/3-1/3 and you get 236/3. then you turn it from an improper fraction into a mixed number. 236 divided by and you get 78.6 repeating

Nathan earns $1500 a week. Calculate his new weekly wage if he receives a pay rise of 20%
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

$1800

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approanch

An easy way to calculate one's salary after they recive a raise is to, convert the percent that one's salary is increased into a decimal; divide the percent by 100. Then multiply the increase as a decimal by the original salary, to attain the amount the salary is raised by. Finally add the amount the salary is raised by to the original salary to find the new salary. A quicker way to do this is to convert the percent by the salary is increased into a decimal. Then add 1 to that number. Finally one will multiply that number by the original slary and get the new salary.

2. Solving

Original salary; 1500

Raise; 20%

<u>a. convert the raise as a percent into a decimal, then add 1</u>

20% = 0.2

0.2 + 1 = 1.2

<u>b. multiply the number by the original salary</u>

1.2 * 1500

1800

A shoe store buys a shipment of nike shoes that cost $70 each to the purchases. They want to markup their prices for the custome
Rus_ich [418]

Given :

A shoe store buys a shipment of Nike shoes that cost $70 each to the purchases.

They want to markup their prices for the customers by 30%.

To Find :

How much would the customer pay for a pair of Nikes.

Solution :

C.P = $70 .

It is given that selling price is 30% more than the S.P.

So, S.P = C.P + C.P×0.30

S.P = C.P×1.30

S.P = 70×1.30

S.P = $91.

Therefore, the customer would pay $91 for a pair.
