Four oranges cost 90 cents, an orange costs 90/4 cents, which is around 22.5 cents. Multiply this by 36 to get the cost of 3 dozen oranges, so 22.5 times 36 is 810, 810 cents, or 8.10 dollars.
If the next number is 125% of the previous number, that means that the previous number is increasing by 25% each time.
The multiplier for increasing by 25% is:
(100 + 25) ÷ 100 = 1.25
So on day one, there are 64 responses. That means on day two, there will be:
---> 64 x 1.25 = 80 responses
On day 3, there will be:
---> 80 x 1.25 = 100 responses
Finally, on <u>day 4</u>, there will be:
---> 100 x 1.25 = 125 responses
A quicker way of getting this would be to do:
64 x 1.25³ since you are multiplying by 1.25 3 times

Answer:
$1.20
Step-by-step explanation:
3.6/3=1.2
you would divide for the unit rate or in other words simplify it.
First, lets determine the regular price of his purchase :
16.99 (3) + 34.99 (3) + 52.99 (2) + 5.99 (5) = 50.97 + 104.97 + 105.98 + 29.95 = 291.87
Therefore, the regular price of his purchase is $291.87 before sales tax.
If he receives 25% off of his total purchase, then the price is now :
291.87 * .75 = $218.90
We multiply by 75% because we are only paying 75% of the total purchase price since we received a 25% discount.
The total savings is
291.87 - 218.90 = $72.97
If sales tax is 10%, the total purchase price after sales tax is :
218.90 * 1.10 = $240.79
The sales tax is $21.89 since
240.79 -218.90 = 21.89
If he pays with 3 $100 bills, we should receive :
300 - 240.79 = $59.21
in change.
