Answer:

$240

Step-by-step explanation:

.75*x=180

This equation is setup so we can find the value of the original price, since 25% is deducted, you can multiply x by 75% and set it equal to 180 since that is the resulting discounted price.

Felicia used 153 Yellow beads and some green beads for her art project. She used 9 times as many Yellow beads as green beads. Ho

Vlada [557]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of green beads that Felicia used, we first need to list out what we know.

Let x = number of green beads.

Yellow Beads = 153

So we get:

x*9 = 153

We divide both sides by nine to find the value of x.

$\dfrac{x*9}{9}=\dfrac{153}{9}$

x = 17

To see if we got the answer correct, let's substitute x.

x * 9 = 153

17 * 9 = 153

153 = 153
