Q + r + s.....q = 46, s = 54
46 + r + 54
100 + r <==
Rate of burn(scented):1/8inch in 1/4h
=4(1/8)inch in 1h=1/2inch in 1h
Rate of burn(unscented):1/9inch in 1/3h=3(1/9)inch in 1h=1/3inch in 1h
The scented candle burns more in one hour.
1/2inch-1/3inch=1/6inch
The scented candle burns 1/6inch more per hour
The fraction in the picture is 1/8 .
That's equivalent to 12.5 %.
____________________________________
Maybe what you want is the whole mixed number changed to percent.
-- The 5 alone is 500% .
-- The 1/8 alone is 12.5% .
-- When you puttum together and addum up,
(5 + 1/8) = (500% + 12.5%) = 512.5% .
Combine like terms
Then you’ll get -7a-2b+8c-14 which is the answer.
It's an 11% increase. To find this, you have to subtract 85 from 94.35 and then you divide that difference by the original amount. In this case it's 85. After that, you get .11. Then you just turn it into a percent.
