(3/5) : (15/6) ===> (3/5) X (6/15) = 18/75 =6/25
100% = 1600
120% = 1920
1920/120 = 1536/y
1920y = <span>184320 (cross multiply)
y = 96%
decrease of 24% from 1920</span>
The answer is 77 multiply and add them
Answer:
The larger ham is the better buy.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to determine the better buy, divide both of the prices by their weight to get the price per pound of ham.
5.70/3 = 1.90 per lb
8.75/5 = 1.75 per lb
Therefore the 5 pound of ham is a better buy.
Answer:
n ≥ -17
Step-by-step explanation:
Writing a symbolic inequality, we get:
10 - 3n ≤ 61
Solve this for 3n by adding 3n to both sides of this equation:
10 ≤ 61 + 3n
Solve for n by subtracting 61 from both sides and then dividing all of the resulting terms by 3:
-51 ≤ 3n (divide both sides by 3):
-17 ≤ n, or
n ≥ -17
