Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Method 1: Calculate 40% discount on original price, then subtract discount from original price.
Amount of discount = 40% of $30
= 0.40 × $30
= $12
New price = $30 - $12 = $18
Method 2:
New price = (100% - discount percentage) of original price
= 60% of original price
= 0.60 × $30
= $18
The answer would be that the X=3
(26/25) x (15/28) x (8/39)
Divide top and bottom by 3 :
(26/25) x (5/28) x (8/13)
Divide top and bottom by 5 :
(26/5) x (1/28) x (8/13)
Divide top and bottom by 4 :
(26/5) x (1/7) x (2/13)
= 52 / 455 = 0.11429... (rounded)
By the rule of 3 simple:
53/100 = x/113100
x = 53*113100/100 = 59943
The third one is a point with the first equation.
I had to simplify the second equation.
It simplified to,

The second one with the above is didn't go through so I'd say no solution.
