Answer:
zero
Step-by-step explanation:
If the same sum is received for the sale of 20 apples at price p as is received for the sale of 140 apples at price p, then we must have ...
20p = 140p
120p = 0 . . . . . . subtract 20p
p = 0 . . . . . . . . . divide by 120
The price was zero.
Answer:
a = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
8.1 = 0.9a
Solving
8.1 = 0.9a
Solving for variable 'a'.
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-0.9a' to each side of the equation.
8.1 + -0.9a = 0.9a + -0.9a
Combine like terms: 0.9a + -0.9a = 0.0
8.1 + -0.9a = 0.0
Add '-8.1' to each side of the equation.
8.1 + -8.1 + -0.9a = 0.0 + -8.1
Combine like terms: 8.1 + -8.1 = 0.0
0.0 + -0.9a = 0.0 + -8.1
-0.9a = 0.0 + -8.1
Combine like terms: 0.0 + -8.1 = -8.1
-0.9a = -8.1
Divide each side by '-0.9'.
a = 9
Simplifying
a = 9
Explanation:
The question requires that we round the given number to Ten-thousand
To do so, we will have to write the place values of the numbers first
Next, we find the digits before the Ten-thousand digits and then approximate the value
One of the principles to use is that
numbers from 0 to 4 are rounded to 0
while numbers from 5 to 9 are rounded to 1
In our case, The thousand digit is 0, so we round down to 0, then we add to the Ten-thousand digits and convert each of the numbers before the Ten-thousand digits to 0
Thus, we will have

Hence, the answer is 1,370,000
Answer:
225
Step-by-step explanation:
if it is 1/3 off, then it means it's at 2/3 the price. now, you have to divide 450/2 to get the answer. 2/3 divided by 2=1/3
450/2=225, and thats how much money you will save
