The price of the discount is $25 x 0.15 = $3.75
The price of the book with discount is $25 - $3.75 = $21.25
Answer:
a=19
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to distribute the parenthesis; multiply (a+5) by 1/3
8=1/3*a+1/3*5
Now we just solve the equation regularly
8=1/3a+5/3
8-5/3=1/3a
6 1/3=1/3a
a=19
Big marbles = 45red 3/4 blue
Small marbles = 2/5 red 3/5 blue 24 more small blue mabrles than red marbles
What percentage of the marbles are big marbles
First of all lets working out the missing values:
Big Marbles, 45 red, 3/4 blue. If 45 red is 1/4, then 135 (45*3) is 3/4.
Big Marbles, 45 red, 135 blue = 180 in total
For the small marbles, we do some logical thinking:
If red is 2/5, and blue is 3/5. And blue has 24 more than red.
That means 24 = 1/5
So in total there are 120 small marbles (24*5)
There are 180 big marbles
We add these together, 120 + 180 = 300 marbles
180 / 300 = 0.6 = 60%
^ Divide the big marbles by the number of total marbles
60% of the marbles are big marbles
