<span>Well 68/80 as a percent is 85 % .I got that by dividing 68 by 80 and them multiplying by 100. 100-85= 15. So therefore the dress decreased in price by 15%. </span>
She should move it one place to the left because there is one zero in ten so however many zeros there are in the multiple of 10 that's how many times you move it. Then, you move it left to divide and right to multiply. Hope I helped!
This is a classic example of a 45-45-90 triangle: it's a right triangle (one angle of 90) & two other sides of the same length, which means two angles of the same length (and 45 is the only number that will work). With a 45-45-90 triangle, the lengths of the legs are easy to determine:
45-45-90
1-1-sqrt2
Where the hypotenuse corresponds to sqrt2.
Now, your hypotenuse is 10.
To figure out what each leg is, divide 10/sqrt2 (because sqrt2/sqrt2 = 1, which is a leg length in the explanation above).
Problem: you can't divide by radicals. So, we'll have to rationalize the denominator:
(10•sqrt2)/(sqrt2•sqrt2)
This can be rewritten:
10sqrt2/sqrt(2•2)
=10sqrt2/sqrt4
=10sqrt2/2
=5sqrt2
Hope this helps!!
