Equation to find original price if sale price of $429 is a 34% discount
Burka [1]

Answer:

The original price is $650

Step-by-step explanation:

There's an actual algebra method for this, but this is my method because I find it way easier to remember.

Since the most you can discount out of an item is 100% (well, it's considered free then) let's subtract 100 - 34, which is 66.

Now, turn it into a decimal because it makes the numbers easier- 0.66.

Since when you're finding the discount of an original price, you multiply the original price by the discount- instead for finding the original price for a discounted item we divide $429 by 0.66 instead, since when you divide a number by another number that's under 1 the quotient is a larger number.

So, 429 ÷ 0.66 = 650.

Therefore, the original price of the $429 sale price for a 34% discount is $650.

Are 2/3 and 6/8 equivalent?
miskamm [114]
No they are not, 6/8 could also be represented as 3/4. Therefore they are not equivalent. You would divide each side by the factor they have in common such as 2.

Triss [41]
By what is P i assume you mean what is the probability.
Well probability is always the specific group divided by the total
To find the total add all the marbles together
4 + 6 + 14 + 5 +8 = 37
Before we move on notice the question says that the marble is replaced after being chosen meaning the total stays the same for every pick
Red Marbles Probability:
red marbles/ total
6/37 or if you divide it out 0.162
Blue Marbles Probability:
blue marbles/total
8/37 or 0.216
