Answer: (14/2)-5=2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Farmer Anne's land = 173 acres
Farmer Cassius = 519 acres
Farmer Mel = 1,557 acres
Step-by-step explanation:
Total acre = 2,249
Let
Farmer Anne's land = x
Farmer Cassius = 3x
Farmer Mel = 3(3x) = 9x
x + 3x + 9x = 2,249
13x = 2,249
x = 173
Farmer Anne's land = x = 173 acres
Farmer Cassius = 3x
= 3(173)
= 519 acres
Farmer Mel = 3(3x) = 9x
= 9(173)
= 1,557 acres
Therefore,
Farmer Anne's land = 173 acres
Farmer Cassius = 519 acres
Farmer Mel = 1,557 acres
Ouch, kinda crippled w/o answer choices.
But with my calculating, i've made it out to be <span>92.07 %
Please do respond & rate based on my accuracy.
-Feeling confident-

Remember that percent means parts out of 100
x/100
discount is the decrease
so we divide the decrease by the original total and get
100/5775=0.0173
convert to fraction
0.0173/1
make bottom number 100
multiply by 100/100
1.73/100=1.73%
round
2%
