Divide the whole (914 feet) by the size of the pieces (3/4 foot)

x= number of 3/4 foot pieces

x= 914 feet ÷ 3/4 foot pieces

*Multiply by 3/4 reciprocal (inverse)

x= 914 * 4/3
x= (914*4) / 3
x= 3656/3
x= 1218.66
x= 1218 whole pieces and 66/100 is left over.

There are 1218 foot sized pieces. There is 66/100 foot left over (or 0.66 foot left - not rounded). If you round to the tenths, it's 7/10 foot left.

Hope this helps! :)

An item that cost $5.50 is marked up %60. What is the new price of the item after the markup? Show work please​

Answer:

$8.80

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the new price, you need to add 60% of the original price (5.50) to the original price. You have two options:

1) multiply $5.50*0.6 to get 60% of the original price. You would get $3.30. Then add $3.30+$5.50, which equals $8.80. This way takes longer but shows you all the steps.

2) The shorter way is to simply multiply $5.50*1.6, which also equals $8.80. This works because the "1" automatically adds the 5.50 to 60% of the original price, this way you don't have to multiply then add.

If you don't understand how the second way works or your teacher taught you #1, just do it the first way.
