Two ways:

=

and 1/4 = 25%
Another way.
300 = n% of 1200
Problem - we can't move n% back two place to change it to a decimal since we don't know what n is. Solution - move the decimal back on the 1200 two places because since of means x, it doesn't matter. Sample .45 x 32 = 45 x .32 Notice that the decimal can be place on either number and it results in the same answer.
So 300 = 12n (1200 moved back 2 places)
now divide by 12
<u>300</u> = <u>12n
</u>12 12 and once again n=25(%)<u>

Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Let u = x² ( choice of variable is flexible ), then
4u² - 21u + 20 = 0 ← expressed as a quadratic
This can now be solved for u and converted back into terms of x
The solution is
and 
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression is
and 
Using substitution method we can solve the expression.
Let us substitute
in 

Expanding and simplifying the expression, we get,

Let us use the quadratic equation formula to solve this equation,

Thus,
and 
Substituting y-values in the equation
, we get the value of x.
For

For
⇒ 
Thus, the solution set is
and 
Mike ($3.75): x
Friends ($3.75): 3x
Mike + Friends ≤ 25
3.75(x) + 3.75(3x) ≤ 25
3.75x + 11.25x ≤ 25
15x ≤ 25
≤ 
x ≤ 1
