Answer:

a. So the electric guitar is sold for a sale price of $315 after the discount. The discount was 30%. Even though we get that amount off, we still pay 70% of the original price, because 100% (original price) - 30% is 70%.

b. An equation that can help us find the regular price of the item is through writing and solving a proportion. Set it up like this:

315/x = 70/100

This is because 315 is part of the whole and is 70% of the value of x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay. Let's solve this by cross multiplying the values. 315 * 100 is 31,500. 70 * x is 70x. That simplifies to 31,500 = 70x. Didivde each side by 70 to isolate the x. 70x/70 cancels out. 31,500/70 is 450. Let's check this by multiply the number by 70% and see what happens. 450 * 70% (0.7) is 315. There. x = 450. The regular price was $450.

Answer:

a. $450

b. $135

c. 70%

Step-by-step:

\frac{70}{100}  = \frac{315}{450}  since these two fractions are equal to each other that means the orginal price is $450.

(sale price/original price)x100= % of original price

(315/450)x100=0.7=70%

16.47 is what percent of 61 show step by step
GalinKa [24]
Solution for 47 is what percent of 61:

47:61*100 =

(47*100):61 =

4700:61 = 77.05

Now we have: 47 is what percent of 61 = 77.05

Question: 47 is what percent of 61?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 61 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with $x$x​.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that $100\%=61$100%=61​.

Step 4: In the same vein, $x\%=47$x%=47​.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

$100\%=61(1)$100%=61(1)​.

$x\%=47(2)$x%=47(2)​.

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS
(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

$\frac{100\%}{x\%}=\frac{61}{47}$
100%
x%​=
61
47​​

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

$\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{47}{61}$
x%
100%​=
47
61​​

$\Rightarrow x=77.05\%$⇒x=77.05%​

Therefore, $47$47​ is $77.05\%$77.05%​ of $61$61​.
