Answer:
27/100
Step-by-step explanation:
It's in the hundreths,
so we just put 27 over 100
Here are two ways of doing it.
************************************************************
1) The current price is 100% of the price. The price went down by 6%, so since 100% - 6% = 94%, the new price is 94% of the original price.
94% * 175 = 0.94 * 175 = 164.50
The new price is 164.50
*******************************************************
2) The discount is 6% of 175, so first, we find the discount.
6% of 175 = 0.06 * 175 = 10.5
Now we subtract the amount of the discount from the original price.
175 - 10.50 = 164.50
The new price is 164.50
**********************************************************
As you can see, both methods give you the same answer, 164.50
Answer:
The greatest amount of fizzy drink he can make is 480 ml
Step-by-step explanation:
The ingredients for a fizzzy drink is 5 parts lime juice and 3 parts lemonade
Therefore, we have a total portion of 5 + 3 = 8 parts
Since there ar more parts of lime juice per fizzy drink, we calculate based on lime juice
Also dividing the proportions by we get
5/5 part lime juice and 3/5 parts lemonade or
1 part lime juice and 3/5 parts lemonade or
Thus we have 300 ml lime juice and 3/5× 300 ml lemonade or
300 ml lime juice and 180 ml lemonade = 480
The greatest amount of fizzy drink he can make = 480 ml.
