Mathematics
1 answer:
horsena [70]3 years ago

Answer: -4/6 or -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you find a common denominator among the fractions, which would be 6.

Convert -1/2 to have 6 as its denominator.

-1/2* 3/3 = -3/6

And then subtract them.

-3/6 - 1/6 = -4/6

-4/6 simplified is -2/3

When you subtract a positive number from a negative number, you are adding their absolute values.

Answer:

  ₹14000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the cost price, and m represent the marked price.

  c × (1 +40%) = m

  m × (1 -15%) - c = ₹1900

Using the first expression for m, the second equation becomes ...

  1.40c×0.85 -c = ₹1900

  0.19c = ₹1900

  c = ₹1900/0.19 = ₹10000

Then the marked price was ...

  m = 1.40c = 1.40×₹10000 = ₹14000

The marked price was ₹14000.

_____

The selling price was ₹11900.
