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

Answer:

Use the explantion to answer your question

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount he paid for first 20 shares

= $25 + (20 x $10.51)

= $25 + $210.20

= $235.20

Amount he paid for next 20 shares

= $25 + (20 x $8.93)

= $25 + $178.60

= $203.60

Thus, total amount paid

= $235.20 + $203.60

= $438.80

Nolan rides his bike 63 miles in 270 minutes. What is his average speed in miles per hour?
s2008m [1.1K]
63 miles in 270 minutes will mean that nolan rides his bike at a distance of 63/270 miles in one minute.
there are 60 minutes in an hour. So to find out the distance he covers in 1 hour, 63/270 × 60 will give you 14 miles.
Since the question is asking for the average speed, nolan rides his bike at 14 miles per hour i think.

At least 4

10% of 12 is 1.2

So 30% is 3.6

And 1% 0.12

So 2% is 0.24


Plus 3.6 onto 0.24 and you get 3.84
