Answer:

Greta will be earning 3.6/h more at her new job.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the difference subract Greta‘s salary from her current job from Greta’s salary from her future job.

To find Greta’s salary (numerator) at her future job divide her current weekly salary ($729) by 45h then multiply that answer (16.2) by the increase in salary 10% or 1.1. You should end up with $17.82- this is your numerator. To find the denominator divide her current hours (45h) by 45 then multiply that answer (1) by 0.9 which is the 10% decrease in hours. Now you have a fraction ($17.82/0.9) then multiply that fraction by 1.1/1.1 to get the denominator to 1 hour so you can subtract the fractions. You should end up with $19.8/h.

Now subtract Greta’s current salary ($16.2/h)- you just take the numbers from the first part before you increase or decrease- from her future salary ($19.8/h), you will end up with 3.6/h.

I was challenged to write this in a single equation:

[((($729\45h)x1.1)/((45h\45)x0.9))x1.1/1.1]-[($729\45h)/(45h\45)]

=$3.6/h

/ means a fraction bar

\ means division

Also I am just a student so please tell me if you find any mistakes I could fix or any suggestions to make this a better explanation, and if you have any questions ask away.

About 42% of a paint mix is white. A painter orders 18 gallons of paint mix. How much of it is white
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

7.56 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of paint mix ordered by the painter = 18 gallons

42% of the paint mix is white.

Representing this as a fraction, \[\frac{42}{100}\]
 of total paint mix is white.

To find the amount of white paint, we need to multiply this fraction with the total amount of paint mix.

\[= \frac{42}{100} * 18\]


\[= \frac{756}{100}\]


7.56 liters

How to make a decimal a mixed number​
lianna [129]

Answer:Step 1: Write down the decimal divided by 1, like this: decimal1

Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point. (For example, if there are two numbers after the decimal point, then use 100, if there are three then use 1000, etc.)

Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the fraction

Example: Convert 0.75 to a fraction

Step 1: Write down 0.75 divided by 1:

0.751

Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 100 (because there are 2 digits after the decimal point so that is 10×10=100):

× 100

right over arrow

0.751 = 75100

right under arrow

× 100

(Do you see how it turns the top number

into a whole number?)

Step 3: Simplify the fraction (this took me two steps):

÷5 ÷ 5

right over arrow right over arrow

75100 = 1520 = 34

right under arrow right under arrow

÷5 ÷ 5

Answer = 34
