The answer would be 8631800
Hello!
when taking a number and finding 95% of it, you would usually take the number and multiply it by .95
To find the original number, reverse this process like so:
42.75/.95=45
<u><em>95% of 45 is 42.75</em></u>
I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
If clothing is 14%, we need to multiply the total budget by 0.14 to find 14% of the total budget.
140000 * 0.14 = 19600
So 19600 worth of the budget is used on clothes.
1. Let
x = first piece
y = second piece
z = third piece
2. Arrange it into an equation
x + y + z = 50
3. The second piece is 4 times as long as the first piece so 4x = y.
The third piece is 5 times as long as the first piece so 5x = z
4. Now substitute the values
x + (4x) + (5x) = 50
5. Simplifying makes the equation into 10x = 50
6. Do the opposite of multiplying to get rid of the 10 which is dividing. Divide 50 by 10.
x = 50/10
x = 5
7. Now substitute x in 4x and 5x
4 * 5 = 20
5 * 5 = 25
8.
x = 5
y = 20
z = 25
