Mary spent $15. If this was 20% of her earrings, how much money did she earned?

Mathematics

Fed [463]3 years ago
4 0

Hi, I'm happy to help!

First off, we need to arrange an equation for what is being asked. 15 is 20% of her earnings and we don't know her total earnings.

15=20%×__

We can write this percentage as

15=0.2×__

We then change the equation to do the inverse operation, which is division, this makes it easier to solve.

15÷0.2=__

Now, we solve

15÷0.2=75

<u>She earned $75</u>

<u></u>

I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D

kari74 [83]

Answer:

Option (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Average waiting time in the month of October = 20 minutes

Average waiting time in the month of November = 30 minutes

Average waiting time in the month of December = 60 minutes

Average waiting time in the month of January = 40 minutes

Average waiting time in the month of February = 10 minutes

Average waiting time in the month of March = 10 minutes

Average waiting time in the month of April = 30 minutes

Average waiting time in the month of May = 40 minutes

Average waiting time in the month of June = 20 minutes

Total waiting period from October to June = 20 + 30 + 60 + 40 + 10 + 10 + 30 + 40 + 20 = 260

Average waiting period = \frac{260}{9}

                                       = 28.89

                                       ≈ 29 minutes

Option (B) is the answer.

Kyle earned 4 times as much as Ken last summer. If they earned a total of $750, how much did they each earn?
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

600, 150

Step-by-step explanation:

Kyle is x

ken is y

x = 4y

x+y = 750

replace x with 4y

4y + y = 750

5y = 750

y = 150

so ken earned 150

x + 150 = 750

x = 600

so Kyle earned 600
