3/8 0f 100
100 / 8 = 12.5
Now, let's multiply this by 3 to be able to get the value
=> 12.5 * 3 = 37.5 is the value of 3/8 of 100.
This is a mixed number because its a combination of whole and decimal numbers.
I solved this problem by setting 240/80 equal to x/100 . Once you set them equal to each other, multiply 240 and 100 and divide the product by 80 and you get 300.
Hey there! Hello!
I believe what this question (more of a statement) is asking is to identify what a letter that represents an unknown number is called. Most of the time, i refer to it as just a variable, or an unknown variable. It can also be referred to as just an unknown value.
Feel free to ask me any additional questions if you have any! :-)
Answer:
w = 40 miles per hour
r = 300 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
We add w with the wind and subtract w against the wind
r+w = 340 miles per hour
r - w = 260 miles per hour
Add the two equations together to eliminate w
r+w = 340 miles per hour
r - w = 260 miles per hour
----------------------------------------
2r = 600
Divide by 2
r = 300 miles per hour without the wind
Now find w
r+w = 340
300 + w = 340
Subtract 300
w = 340-300
w = 40 miles per hour
