In order to solve this, you need to put it into a fraction form.
First for every 225 employees there's 27 supervisors.
25 x
___ = ___
225 252
I got the 252 by adding 225+27(who are the new employees)
So then you need to cross multiply. And get them to equal the same number.
So 25×252= 6,300
Then Divide 6,300 by the old denominator 225.
6,300÷225= 28 new employees
Therefore there will be a total of 28 employees.
Hope this helped!
If x + y = 6, then solve for y to get: y = 6 - x.
Now replace y with 6 - x in both equations.
(5x)/3 + 6 - x = c
2(6 - x) = c - 4x
The upper equation is solved for c.
Now we solve the lower equation for c.
c = 2(6 - x) + 4x
c = 12 - 2x + 4x
c = 2x + 12
Since we have two equations solved for c, we substitute to get
(5x)/3 + 6 - x = 2x + 12
This is an equation in only x, so we can solve for x.
(5x)/3 - 3x = 6
5x - 9x = 18
-4x = 18
x = -9/2
Now we solve for y.
x + y = 6
-9/2 + y = 6
y = 9/2 + 12/2
y = 21/2
Now we solve for c.
c = (5x)/3 + y
c = (5 * (-9/2))/3 + 21/2
c = -45/6 + 21/2
c = -15/2 + 21/2
c = 6/2
c = 3
Answer: c = 3
Answer:
83
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of robbers be x
If they share 6 rolls each, the tota rolls will be 6x and since they have five remainder, the overall total is then 6x+5
In case they share 7 rolls each, it means they have 7x rolls but here they will be less 8 rolls hence 7x-8 is the overall total.
Equating these two
7x-8=6x+5
Arranging similar terms
7x-6x=8+5
x=13
Therefore, the robbers are 13
The rolla they have will be
6(13)+5=83
Or
7(13)-8=83
Answer:
29.2 percent decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
the difference between 96 and 68 is 28 bucks
28 is what percent of 96
is over of
x/100 x 28/96
cross multiply=2800/96
divide 2800 by 96 and the answer is 29.1666
