Answer:

Your question was a bit confusing so I found another related question. You can reference it with your own details.

A vendor bought 10 dozen eggs at the rate of Rs 22 per dozen. Six of the eggs were rotten. He sold the remaining eggs at the rate of Rs 2.50 per egg . Find his profit or loss

Vendor bought 10 dozen eggs which means the vendor bought:

= 10 * 12 eggs

= 120 eggs

6 were rotten and he sold the rest for Rs. 2.50 per egg.

= (120 - 6) * 2.5

= Rs. 285

The amount he spent on the eggs was:

= 10 dozen * 22

= Rs. 220

Profit = 285 - 220

= Rs. 65

I'm not sure but I think I may have the answer to number 9
It says she uses 3 draws for shirts and wants to find out the percentage. Percentage is normally out of 100% so we do 100÷4 (we divide by 4 because there are 4 drawers)
100÷4=25. So now it says she uses three drawers for her shirts so we need to do 25x3=75 and all you do with that is put it in percent. The answer is 75%
P.S I am not entirely sure that this is correct but I wanted to help ❤

Fred and Frank play a game. Fred picks an even number X and asks Frank to add all even numbers between 0 and X (inclusive) as fa
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The even numbers between 0 and X represents an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 2

The rule of arithmetic sequence = a + d(n - 1)

Where a is the first term and n is the number of terms

So, for the even numbers between 0 and X

The first term = a = 0

d = 2

So, we need to find n at the last term which is X

∴ X = 0 + 2 ( n -1 )

∴ n - 1 = X/2

∴ n = X/2 + 1

The sum of the arithmetic sequence = (n/2) × (2a + (n−1)d)

Substitute with a and d and X

So, the sum = (n/2) * (2*0 + (n−1)*2)

                   = (n/2) * ((n−1)*2)

                   = n(n-1)

                   = (X/2 + 1) * (X/2)

                   = X/2 by (X/2 + 1)

So, The quick way to add all even numbers between 0 and X always works.
