Twice a number increased by 5= 2x+5
5 decreased by twice a number= 5-2x
twice the difference of a number and 5= 2(x-5)
Twice the sum of a number and 5= 2(x+5)
Five subtracted from twice a number= 2x-5
Twice a number, less 5= 2x-5
We just need to extrapolate the information we have about 25 apples to 100, that is we need to find a number that multiplied by gives us 100, from this original fraction, hence, we have:
2 out of 25 = 2/25
if we multiply and divide a number or fraction by the same number we do not alter its value, so we need to convert the 25 into 100, and that can be done multiplying it by 4, like so:
(2/25)(4/4) = (2*4)/(25*4) = 8/100
So if we have 2 bruised apples out of 25, then we can expect to have 8 bruised apples out of 100
Answer:
6x + 2 ( x - 4) = 8 + 4 ( x + 2)
6x + 2x - 8 = 8 + 4x + 8
<em><u>Arranging</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>like</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>terms</u></em><em><u> </u></em>
6x + 2x - 4x = 8 +8 - 8
8x - 4x = 8
4x = 8
x = 8/4
x = 2
i think its 1000%
why?
''Convert the decimal to a percentage by multiplying the decimal by 100.''
You have to add 10 last.
divide 75÷8 and then add 10
