Discount =17%=51 $(given)
Let the price be=x
So formula is
Discount%/100 *actual price =discount (in$)
17/100*x=51
X=51*100/17
X=300$
Hence the price of the watch is 300$

 <span>To rephrase the question,
17% of what is $51?

Let me give you a short way or formula.
is/of = %/100

is = 51
0f = x
%= 17%

51/x = 17/100
51*100 = x*17
5100= 17x
5100/17= x

so x = 300</span>

carlene bought 8 1/6 yards of ribbon to decorate a shirt. she only used 5 1/2 yards. how much ribbon does she have left
777dan777 [17]
To make things simple you can first find out what 8 1/16 is. 8 1/16 is approximately 8.0625. Then find what 5 1/2 is which is 5.5. Now all you have to do is subtract 5.5 from 8.0625 (8.0625-5.5) and that should be equal to 2.5625.
