Hello there! We are talking about 86 being part of a number, so we are looking for the whole. To find the number we are looking for, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:
86/x = 45/100
86 is 45% of a number. We know the part, so now we are looking for the whole. 45% is part of 100%, so we put that part together. Cross multiply the digits. 100 * 86 is 8,600. 45 * x is 45x. That simplifies to 8,600 = 45x. Now, divide each side by 45 to isolate the x. 45x/45 cancels out. 8,600/45 is 191.1111111 or 191 1/9 in fraction form. There. x = 191 1/9 86 is 45% or 191 1/9
Note: Or, if you have to round to the nearest whole number, the answer is 191, or if you have to round to the nearest tenth, the answer is 191.1. It all depends on if the answer needs to be rounded or exact.
Answer:
Both Oscar and Kim will have enough to purchase the book.
Step-by-step explanation:
Oscar takes 30% of the normal price and subtracts it from the normal price. Out of 100% price he takes 30% so the result is: 100-30%= 70% of the normal price. Oscar's first step has the same result as Kim.
Oscar takes 10% of the discounted price (70%) and adds it back. The price will become 70% + 10%*70%= 77% of original price. Kim multiplies the discounted price with 110%, so the price will be: 70% * 110%= 77%. Both also give the same result.
The final price is 77% of the original, it will be: $28.50* 77%= $21.945
Oscar :
28.50 - 0.30(28.50) = 28.50 - 8.55 = 19.95
0.10(19.95) + 19.95 = 2 + 19.95 = 21.95
Kim :
0.7(28.50) = 19.95
1.10(19.95) = 21.95
Circle=27, triangle=18, and square=26
Start with the second question. If you divide 36 by 2, you get 18 which is the value for the triangle. Now since you know the value of the triange you subtract it from 45. (45-18=27) 27 is the value of the circle. Lastly, subtract 27 from 53 to get the value of the square (53-27=26). Hope this helps!
