Answer:
n/3 - 18
Step-by-step explanation:
"quotient of a number and 3" is n/3, and so
"18 less than the quotient of a number and 3" as an expression is:
n/3 - 18
8.3% is ur answer hope this helps
Answer: The tip left for the servers was $14.80
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:
- <em>Total cost of the food (before tax) = $82.25
</em>
- <em>Tip = 18% of the amount before the tax
</em>
So, to calculate the tip we have to multiply the cost of the food before tax ($82.25) by the 0.18 (percentage in decimal form, 18/100= 0.18).
Mathematically speaking:
82.25 x 0.18 = $14.80
The tip left for the servers was $14.80
This is the best I got Require to make 2 equations with the same repeating part and subtract them to eliminate the repeating part.
begin by letting x = 0.5555555................. (1)
To obtain the same repeating part after the decimal point need to multiply by 10
hence 10x = 5.555555........................(2)
It is important to obtain 2 equations in x, where the recurring part after the decimal points are exactly the same.
now subtract (1) from (2) to obtain fraction
(2) - (1) : <span>9x=5⇒x=<span><span>59</span></span></span>
