Answer:
17/72
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's make this equation easier to read.
.5/36 + 16(1/72)
Start by remembering PEMDAS
Parentheses
Exponents
Multiply
Divide
Add
Subtract
This is the order in which you will solve the problem. So multiplication first, then division, and finally addition.
Multiply 16 and 1/72
16/1 x 1/72 multiply across to get 16/72 which can be reduced to 2/9.
Divide .5 (or 1/2) by 36. To do this, multiply by the reciprocal of 36
1/2 x 1/36 = 1/72
Your equation is now
2/9 + 1/72
Your common denominator is 72, so multiply top and bottom of 2/9 by 8.
16/72 + 1/72 = 17/72
Answer:
The number of Television at the beginning was 90
The number of video cassette recorders at the beginning was 89
Step-by-step explanation:
Selling Price of 1 Television =$360.
Selling Price of 1 video cassette recorders for $270.
Let the number of Television at the beginning=x
Let the number of video cassette recorders at the beginning =y
Opening Stock =$56,430.
Therefore:
It sells three quarters of the televisions and one third of the video cassette recorders for a total of $32,310.

270x+90y=32310
We then solve the two equations to obtain x and y.
- 360x+270y=$56,430. (Multiply by 270)
- 270x+90y=32310 (Multiply by 360)
97200x+72900y=15236100
97200x+32400y=11631600
Subtract
40500y=3604500
y=89
Substitute y=89 into 270x+90y=32310 to obtain x
270x+90(89)=32310
270x=32310-8010=24300
x=90
Therefore:
The number of Television at the beginning was 90
The number of video cassette recorders at the beginning was 89
Answer:
B. x=75
Step-by-step explanation:
First, write out the equation as you have it:
x/5=15
Then, multiply both sides of the equation by 5/1:
5/1(x/5)=15(5/1)
Your result is:
x=75
