Answer:
12 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
He spent 3/7 of 56
3/7*56 =24
Take the original amount and subtract what was spent
56-24 =32
He has 32 left
He spent 5/8 of that on a bat
5/8 *32 =20
Take the amount of money he had and subtract what was spent
32-20 = 12
He has 12 left
Answer:
22-5= L
L = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = price of the bike before a sales tax.
The price after a sales tax of 8% is
x + 0.08x = 1.08x dollars
Because the price paid was $171.18, therefore
1.08x = 171.18
x = 171.18/1.08 = $158.50
Answer: 158.50
