Answer:
25/7 acres or 3 4/7 acres
Step-by-step explanation:
The sold 2/7 of the land.
1 - 2/7 = 7/7 - 2/7 = 5/7
They have 5/7 of the land left.
5/7 of 5 acres = 5/7 × 5 acres = 25/7 acres = 3 4/7 acres
Basically you multiply like normal and then add in the decimal point (to figure out where it goes count how many numbers are behind the decimal (in this case 2) and then count that many places from the right into your answer and that's where it goes). So here 374 x22 =8228 but when you add in the decimal you get 82.28 :)
Answer:
The original price of the shoes was $90.
Step-by-step explanation:
25% off means the price Joe paid for it is 75% of the original price.
Set up an equation:
75/100 = 67.50/x
Cross multiply
75 × x = 100 × 67.50
75x = 6750
x = 90
Check our work:
First solve for 25% off of 90 (our answer).
25% = 0.25
90 × 0.25 = 22.50
Next, subtract the discount from 90.
90 - 22.50 = 67.50
67.50 was what Joe paid so this is correct.
