First, convert 1 kg to g.
1 kg = 1000 g
So 1000 g = 1.28
Set up a proportion:
1000/1.28 = 250/x
Cross multiply:
1000x = 320
Divide 1000 to both sides:
x = 0.32
So 250g costs £0.32
Answer:
$54
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of the discount can be found by multiplying 180 by 0.3 which is 54.
If you also need to know the new total it would be $126 because
180 - 54 = 126
X^2 - 5x - 14 = 0
what multiplies to negative 14 and adds to negative 5? -7 and positive 2.
(x - 7) (x + 2) = 0
Lesser x = -2
Greater x = 7
Let x be the brick portion of the wall
Since x is 2/3 of the wall
Then x= (2/3)(2 3/4)
x= 11/6 = 1 5/6
So the brick portion of the wall is 1 5/6 feet
Note: that's not 15/6, it's a mixed fraction which is 1 + 5/6.. just to let you know
1/2 is equivalent to 2/4 because,
2(1/2) = 2/4
So as you can see if you multiply the numerator(top) and the denominator(bottom) by the same number, you get an equivalent fraction! In my example you can see that I multiplied both by 2.
