When solving problems like these, the easiest thing to do is either turn both fractions into decimals or into fractions with a common denominator.
So 3/4 = 0.75 OR 9/12
And 2/3 = .666 OR 8/12
In solving the actual question, you're looking for the store that gives the better deal, meaning that they sell MORE apples for LESS.
The first store sells 9/12 of a bushel for $9 and the second store sells 8/12 of a bushel for $8.
The answer is the first store which sells 3/4 of a bushel for $9.

Answer:
$24.375
Step-by-step explanation:
Regular price of sandals = $32.50
Store sells sandals for 25% of the regular price.
Hence selling price =(100-25)% of the regular price.
In other words, selling price = 75% of regular price
= 75% of $32.50
= ![\[\frac{75}{100}*32.50\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7B75%7D%7B100%7D%2A32.50%5C%5D)
= ![\[24.375\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B24.375%5C%5D)
Hence the sale price of the sandals is $24.375
This is $8.125 less than the regular price of the sandal.
Answer:
72 percent of the total houses are small
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to know the total apartments from the ratio: This is got by adding 18 + 7 = 25
The ratio of small apartments to regular ones is 18:7
To get the percentage that is small, we have to express the number of small houses when compared to the total available apartments. (<em>Note: not the regular ones) </em>as a percentage.
This will be (18/25) X 100 = 72%
Therefore, 72 percent of the total houses are small
