!5% is equivalent to 15 parts over the whole 100 part. It is written in proportions as 15/100.
Similarly, you need to find how many parts in 80 are equivalent to 15%or 15/100. So, just equate both equation with x as an unknown.
x/80 = 15/100
x = (15/100)*80
x = 12
Thus, the 15% of 80 is 12.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It is a solution because if you plug in 84 for b you get 84/12 = 7
Answer:
4/27 chance of getting a white marble.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 white marbles but there are 27 marbles in total. If you wanted a percentage, then divide 4 by 27 and place the decimal two places to the right once you founded your answer.
(sorry if it's a bad explanation)
Well, since you have the value of b, the first thing you want to do is substitute that value in for b.
5a - 10(3) = 45
10*3 = 30
5a - 30 = 45
Now, to get the variable by itself (a) you have to + 30 because you have to reverse the subtraction.
5a = 75
Now, you divide by 5 to finish getting a by itself.
a = 15
Hope this helps!
