Answer:
$426
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
He bought a video game system for $299
2 games at $49 apiece= 2*49= $98
total cost = 299+98=$397
tax= 7.33%
=7.33/100*397
=0.0733*397
=29.1001
total cost = 29.1001+397
=$426
Let us assume the gas bill of Paul in February = x dollars
Then
Electric bill of Paul for the month of February = (x/2) + 3
Amount of Electricity bill of Paul for the month of February = $92
then we can write the equation as
(x/2) + 3 = 92
x/2 = 92 - 3
x/2 = 89
x = 89 * 2
= 178 dollars
So the gas bill of Paul in February is $178. I hope this is the answer you were looking for.
Answer:
5/24
Step-by-step explanation:
The question in English is
A tank is filled with water daily to give water to the animals on a farm. As required, 3/8 of the water was taken from the tank to give to the horses and 1/3 of what was left in the tank was given to the pigs. The remainder of the tank was distributed in two equal amounts to give water to the birds and pets. What is the fraction of the water that pets receive to drink?
1) 3/8 of the water was taken from the tank to give to the horses
At this point in the tank there are 1-3/8=5/8 of the water of the tank
2) 1/3 of what was left in the tank was given to the pigs
At this point in the tank there are
(1-1/3)*5/8
(2/3)(5/8)=10/24 of the water of the tank
3) The remainder of the tank was distributed in two equal amounts to give water to the birds and pets
The remainder is equal to 10/24
divided by 2
(10/24)/2=10/48
4) The fraction of the water that pets receive to drink is 10/48
simplify
10/48=5/24
