Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's what's going on: some person buying their furniture sees this sofa and it's $1200. That person sees theres a 1/3 off sale! They're happy and buy their sofa with a 20% off discount they got.

Now we have to find out  if they should use the 20% off discount before or after adding the 1/3 off sale.

The answer is, they're both the same.

Say they add the 1/3 off sale discount and then use their 20% off discount. Find the 1/3 off sale: 1200 divided by 3 (because fractions are division problems) = 400. 20% of 400: 400 x 0.2 = 80. It's not just 80, because it's not an "only pay 20%" discount. 400 - 80 = 320. They'd pay $320 with this method.

This shows that using the 20% discount after the 1/3 off sale the customer spends $320.

Now let's calculate what happens if they use the discount after the 1/3 off sale. 20% of 1200: 1200 x 0.2 = 240. 1200 - 240 = 960. Now adding the 1/3 off sale: 960 divided by 3 = 320. They'd also pay $320 with this method.

If it's a short answer, you could just write something like, "No, both methods end up with the sales associate paying $320."

Hope this helps!

A printer is printing photos. For every 15 photos, the printer takes 3 minutes.
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

3:15, 5:25, 7:35, 8:40, 10:50

Step-by-step explanation:

When I first tried this I thought it was for every one there was fifteen. I messed up then looked, realized, and changed it. For every 3 there is 15 so 15 ÷ 3 = 5 so when I saw the 5 I multiplied it by five to get 25 then continued throughout. Your first step when doing these problems again is to divide (but make sure you divide the right number) then once you find out that sweet number, multiply is by the time to get the photos, and divide by five on the photos to get the time.

<em>Hope you got this right!</em>
