Answer:
x = 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the original price.
He got 30% off
The discount is .30x
Subtract this from the original price to get the price he paid
x - .30x = price he paid
.70x = price he paid
.70x = 35
Divide each side by .7
.70x/.7 = 35/.7
x=50

Answer:
20%
Step-by-step explanation:
20/25 = blue
This means 5/25 of the balls in the bag are NOT blue
(25-20 = 5)
We need to convert 5/25 to a percentage

% = per cent
"per" means "out of"
"cent" means "one hundred"
so
20/100 = 20%
