12.8-12.4=0.4
0.4 divide by 12.4 = 0.0322
0.0322 x 100 = 3.22%
If you decrease something by 4 percent,
you are keeping (100% - 4%) or 96% of the original
so multiply by the original amount by 96 percent or .96
If you have 100 pennies, and you give 4 away ( 4 percent decrease), you still have 96 pennies. You are keeping 96 percent of what you started with. This works no matter how much you start with.
Example:
you have 40 dollars
4% decrease
40 * .04 = 1.6 take this away
40 - 1.6 = 38.4 left
you keep 96 percent
40 * .96 = 38.4 left
Answer:
5.6+8.5 divided by 2 times 6 = 42.3
Answer:
254 yds²
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 6 faces of the prism we need to calculate the area of for a rectangular prism.
The base and top of the prism measure 9x7 yards each, so there are two faces with an area of 63 yds² (9 x 7 = 63)
The sides of the prism measure 4x7 yards each, so there are two faces with an area of 28 yds² (4 x 7 = 28)
The front and back face of the prism measure 9x4 yards each, so there are two faces with an area of 36 yds² (9 x 4 = 36)
The total surface area is
2(63) + 2(28) + 2(36) = 254 yds²
Not sure I'm right but:
If the bar weighs 9.25 ounces and 65% of the bar is gold, you'd do 65% of 9.25. So the answer would be <span>65% of 9.25= 6.0125</span>
