X/1000=72/125 multiply both sides by 1000
x=72000/125
x=576
So the fraction is 576/1000
So if a cubic box has a side length of 2 ft in order to find the volume we need to cube it or multiply the length times 3 times. so it would be 2x2x2=8. that is the volume of the fiest cube. in order to find the volume of the larger cube first you need to know the length of one of the sides. the base has 4 sides to it that are all equal so you divide 24 by 4 and get 6. then to find the volume you multiply 6 three times since it is also a cubic cube so it would be 6x6x6=216. now you know the volume of each cube so you divide 216 by 8 to find how many times the volume of the small cube would go into the volume of the larger cube and get 27 times.
This means making the fraction reduced to its lowest term
example=
make the fraction 18xz/4z simpler
the z cancels each other making it remaining 18x/4
2 can go in x as in 18
=9x/2
so the simpler form of the fraction 18xz/4z
=9x/2
Answer:
a. Weekly Gross pay:
= 9.50 * 20
= $190
b. Federal tax withheld:
= 10% * 190
= $19
c. FICA Tax withheld:
= 5.65% * 190
= $10.74
d. State tax withheld:
= 5% * 190
= $9.50
e. Weekly net pay
= Gross pay - taxes
= 190 - 19 - 10.74 - 9.50
= $150.76
f. Percentage withheld for taxes:
= (19 + 10.74 + 9.50) / 190 * 100%
= 20.7%
