Answer:
3.5% of 20, (0.035)*20, and 7% of 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Converting the mixed number (3 1/2) to a decimal yields 3.5, so 3.5% of 20 is correct.
3 1/2 is not equal to 3 1/2%, so 3 1/2 * 20 is not correct.
Converting the percentage to a decimal yields .035 which makes .35 too large, so (0.35) * 20 is not correct.
Changing the percentage to a decimal yields .035, so (0.035) * 20 is correct.
If you divide 20 by 2, you get 10, and if you multiply 2 by 3 1/2, you get 7. The 2 remains part of the expression, so it is equal to 3 1/2 of 20.
Answer:
1/10 as a percent is 10%
1/5 as a percent is 20%
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to multiply the bottom numbers to 100 because usually all percentages are out of 100. The result is the top number.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
25b * (3a² - 1) = 25b * 3a² - 25b * 1
= 75ba² - 25b
Distributive law upon subtraction:
a(x - y) = ax - ay
There is an app that will help for these types of questions called, "Showmath."
To find a percent, you use this simple formula:
5000/62000 = x/100
In this case, x is going to be your percent of commission.
So, to find this, you first divide 5000 by 62000, which is about equal to 0.08.
Now your equation looks like this:
0.08 = x/100
Next, you multiply both sides by 100 to reverse the operation. Now, your equation will look like this:
8 = x
So, the answer is 8%.
