10 times as many as a number is 10 × the number.
10 times as many as 1 ten is 10 × 10 = 100
10 times as many as 1 hundred is 10 × 100 = 1000
Therefore, 10 times as many as 1 hundred is 10 hundreds or
10 times as many as 1 hundred is one thousand.
How much money in the account? that piece is a bit cut out
The answer is definitely B
1. We assume, that the number 118 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
<span>2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for. </span>
<span>3. If 118 is 100%, so we can write it down as 118=100%. </span>
<span>4. We know, that x is 47% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=47%. </span>
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 118=100%
2) x=47%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
118/x=100%/47%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
7. Solution for what is 47% of 118
118/x=100/47
<span>(118/x)*x=(100/47)*x - </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>118=2.12765957447*x - </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (2.12765957447) to get x
<span>118/2.12765957447=x </span>
<span>55.46=x </span>
x=55.46
<span>now we have: </span>
<span>47% of 118=55.46</span>
41 and 1/5 miles.
You can get this by multiplying the distances by number of days. Then add the two together.
