25 questions,
$18.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember, to change percents to decimals, divide the number by 100 and remove the parentheses.
1. 84%, or 21 questions of Roy's test were correct.
Let's set the number of questions on the test as "x". We can then write this equation:
84% * x = 21
Simplify.
0.84 * x = 21
Divide both sides by 0.84
x = 25
There were 25 questions on the test.
2. Cheesecake Factory question
We need to find 15% of 125.
15% * 125 =
0.15 * 125 =
18.75
They need to leave a $18.75 tip.
I hope this helps! Feel free to ask any questions!
