Answer:

£ 537.63

Step-by-step explanation:

original price = 100%

selling price = 100% - 7% = 93% = £500

just do the proportion or ratio

\frac{100\%}{93\%}  =  \frac{original \: price}{500}

OP = 500 x 100% / 93%

OP = £ 537.634

rounded to the nearest penny and become £ 537.63

7 1/3 ∙ x = 1.6 ÷ 6/11<br><br> x = __ <br><br> Please Help!
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

x= 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve and find the value of x

7 1/3x = 1.6 ÷ 6/11

Converting mixed fraction into improper fraction

22/3 x = 1.6 ÷ 6/11

Converting ÷ sign by X and reciprocating the term

22/3 x = 1.6 * 11/6

Now divide both sides by 3/22

x = 1.6 * 11/6 * 3/22

x = 1.6 * 1/2 * 1/2

x = 1.6/4

x = 0.4

S0, x= 0.4
