Answer with Step-by-step explanation:
a. The difference between 8 forty-sevens and 7 forty-sevens
Let ⊕ repesents forty- sevens.
So, Model can be represented by
8⊕ - 7⊕
=⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕-⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕
=⊕
Mathematically,
let x represents forty-sevens.
So, it becomes

b. 6 times the sum of 12 and 8.
Mathematically, it is expressed as

Let 12 be written as 4×3
and 8 be written as 4×2
Let ⊕ represents 4 i.e. fours.
so, there are sum of 2 fours and 3 fours.
So, it becomes,
6×(⊕⊕+⊕⊕⊕)
=6×(⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕)
=⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕⊕
=4×30

Answer:
1) 25%
2) $17.54
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The boots were reduced from $80 to $60, therefore the total amount they were reduced by in terms of money is $20. To find out what percentage $20 is of $80, you divide.
20/80 = 0.25
0.25 = 25 % (to change a decimal to a percentage, you multiply by 100)
2) 20% = 0.20 (to change a percentage to a decimal, you divide by 100)
To find 20% of $87.70, multiply 0.20 by 87.70.
87.70 x 0.20 = 17.54
315 did
therefore
360-315=45 didnt
45/360 students didnt go on the trip
so to turn this into a percentage, just multiply this fraction by 100:
45/360*100 = 12.5%

=

Multiply both sides by 12, so that we get rid of the fraction in x.
12 · (x+3)/12 = 2/7 · 12
Simplify.
x + 3 = 24/7
Then, subtract 3 from both sides, so that "x" gets isolated.
x = 24/7 - 3
Turn "3" into an improper fraction so that we could find the value of x easier.
3 = 21/3
So :
x = 24/7 - 21/7
Simplify.
x = 3/7
