<u>Percentages, Fractions, and Decimals</u>
Assume we set 100% as the original price of the food that Michael consumed. When he leaves a 15% tip for the waitress, he is really paying 100%+15%=115% of the original price.
Now we express 115% as a decimal, simply dividing by 100:
115% = 115/100 = 1.15
To express it as a fraction, we simplify the division instead of calculating it:
115% =
Simplifying by 5:
115% =

Answer:
8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Squares have equal side lengths so if we call each side x, then x × x gives us the area (32 cm²). This means that x² = 32 and therefore, one side is √32 cm.
Next, to work out the diagonal we can use Pythagoras' theory, since we can form a right-angled triangle. a² + b² = c² (c is the diagonal or the hypotenuse)
(√32)² + (√32)² = c²
(note: the square and the square root cancel out)
32 + 32 = 64
c² = 64 ∴ c = √64 which is 8
