1. A crash repair bill comes to $1380.00. How much is 10% of
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

1. 10% of the bill is $138. The final bill once 10% is taken off is $1242.

2. 20% of the total is $34.10. The final total once the 20% is taken off is $136.4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. A crash repair bill comes to $1380.00. How much is 10% of the bill? What is the final bill once 10% is taken off?

To find how much is 10% of the bill, we multiply the bill by 0.1

0.1*1380 = 138

10% of the bill is $138.

To find the final bill, we subtract the initial bill by 10%.

1380 - 138 = 1242

The final bill once 10% is taken off is $1242.

2. A person buys a new fan belt, a new alternator, and a new water pump for their car. The total comes to $170.50. What is 20% of the total? How much is the final total once the 20% is taken off?

Same logic as above.

0.2*170.50 = 34.1

20% of the total is $34.10.

170.50 - 34.1 = 136.4

The final total once the 20% is taken off is $136.4

Fittoniya [83]
It does not matter which he does first. Either way, zero pairs will be created on both sides, which will isolate the variable to determine x<span>. Adding the </span>x<span>-tiles and then the unit tile, or visa versa, will give the same solution.</span>
