Answer:

<em>Thus, the original price of the pair of shoes was $100.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

After a 60% discount, the sale price is now valued at 100-60=40% of its original price.

If the sale price is $40, then the original price is calculated as

$40 / 40 * 100 = $100

Thus, the original price of the pair of shoes was $100.

Verify applying 60% discount:

$100 - 60*$100/100 = $40

Marcellus has a pitcher that contained 5/8 gallon limeade. Marcellus drank 1/4 gallon of the limeade, and Marcy drank 1/8 gallon

mash [69]

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Marcellus drank 1/4 gallon of the limeade and Marcy drank 1/8 gallon of the limeade

Given that only 5/8 portion of the pitcher contains limeade

Total amount drunk = amount drunk by Marcellus + amount drunk by Marcy

Total amount drunk = $\frac{1}{4} +\frac{1}{8}$ = $\frac{3}{8}$

The amount of Limeade remained = The amount initially - the amount drunk

The amount remained = $\frac{5}{8} -\frac{3}{8}$ = $\frac{1}{4}$

Fractional part = amount remained / amount initially = $\frac{\frac{1}{4} }{\frac{5}{8} }$ = $\frac{2}{5}$

Find the missing length

gregori [183]

Answer:

? = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

if we put the triangles onto of each other

side CT is on top of TR

126 ÷ 70 = 1.8

70 × 1.8 = 126

BT is on top of TS

so,

99 ÷ ? = 1.8

99 = 1.8 × ?

99 ÷ 1.8 = ?

55 = ?

55 × 1.8 = 99
