Answer:

711.11

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Method 1 </h3>

If 777  is decreased by 12%. the number would now be (100% - 12%) 88% of what it was originally

0.88 x 777 = 683.76

683.76 is increased by 4%.  683.76 would now be (100 + 4%) 104% of what it originally was

683.76 x 1.04 = 711.11

<h3>Method 2 </h3>

12% x 777 =

0.12 x 777 = 93.24

777 - 93.24 = 683.76

4% x 683.76 = 27.3504

683.76 + 27.3504 = 711.11

Describe how you can use the make a ten strategy to find the sum 7+9
kondor19780726 [428]
I don't quite understand the ten strategy, or what EXACTLY you're asking. But, what you can do is when you add a one digit number plus a nine, just change the nine to a ten and subtract one. It is very easy. So, 7+10 equals 17, subtract one and you get 16 which is 7+9. It is always one less than anything plus 10.
