n - 3.5 = 12.7

viktelen [127]

Answer: 13%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A piece of luggage sells for $225.00 it is on sale this week for $195.00 .

Decrease in price = $225.00-$195.00= $30.00

Formula to find the percent decrease :-

\dfrac{\text{Decrease in price}}{\text{Previous price}}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{30}{225}\times100=13.3333333333\approx13\%\ \ [\text{Rounded to the nearest whole percent.}]

Hence, the  percent decrease = 13%

(15/8+2/5)+(-7/8) show ur work
stepan [7]
The answer is 7/5 th. You can add fractions without first having a common denominator so you would change the 8's by multiplying it by 5 to get 40 and you would multiply the 5 by 8 to get 40 as well. And the rule whatever you do to the bottom you have to do to the top so whatever you multiplied 8 by do the same for the numerator and whatever you multiplied 5 by you do the same for the numerator. So your new equation would be (75/40+16/40)+(-35/40). you would then add the numerator's across to get 56 and the denominator would stay the same so the answer is 56/40. But you have to now simplify 56/40 down to 14/10 and then once more to 7/5 which is the final answer.

Mr. Doyle mowed 2\5ths of his lawn. His son mowed 1\3rd of it. Who mowed most of the lawn? How much of the lawn still needs to b
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Dad:  2/5

Son:  1/3

<u>Who mowed most of the lawn? </u> Dad, of course.  2/5 is larger than 1/3.  2/5 is 40% and 1/3 is 33.333%

<u>How much of the lawn still needs to be mowed?  </u>

 2/5 + 1/3 + X = 1  [1 means the whole lawn.  X is the remaining portion.]

6/15 + 5/15 + X = 1   [Convert each fraction so that they have a com,mon denominator.  This also shows that 2/5 (6/15) is larger than 1/3 (5/15).

11/15 + X = 1

X = 1 - 11/15

X = 4/15 left to be mowed.

<u>How much does Mr. Doyle have left to mow?</u>

We'll assume each rate is the same, 2/5 for Dad and 1/3 for son.

4/15 left to be mowed.

Dad will mow 2/5 of 4/15, so (2/5)*(4/15) = 8/75 left of the original yard

Son will mow 1/3 of 4/15, so (1/3)*(4/15) = 4/45 left of the original yard
