Answer:

75% of the original paper’s size.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s say that the original size was 10 inches.

You then increase it by 50%. It is now 15 inches.

Now, you decrease it by 50%. 50% of 15 is 7.5. So, the paper is now 7.5 inches.

7.5 inches is 75% of the original paper size.

I hope I helped!

Let me know if you need anything else!

Factor the expression<br> 20g3 + 24g2 – 15g – 18
abruzzese [7]
First, put parenthesis around the first two numbers and the last two numbers. 
(20g³+24g²) (-15g-18)
Then, take out the greatest common factor of both parenthesis. 
4g²(5g+6)-3(5g+6)
You then separate the numbers outside the parenthesis and the numbers in the parenthesis. 
(5g+6) (4g²-3) 
Then you simplify the second set of numbers. Since the set of numbers can't be simplified, you would leave this problem as it is. I hope this makes sense.

What is a good source to train numerical reasoning?
LenKa [72]

Numerical reasoning tests are often done to assess a person's ability to solve or interpret numerical data. A good source to train numerical reasoning is the use of computer education software's that deals with numerical data, the use of textbooks, self test etc.

<h3>What is done in Numerical reasoning tests?</h3>

Here, an individual is often required to analyze numerical data and then they are expected to draw conclusions from the data, which is often presented in tabular or graphical forms.

A person can improve their numerical reasoning by;

  • Constant Practice
  • Do make a study schedule and keep to it.
  • Do Practice as if you are going for a competition, etc.

A way that a person can  improve their speed in an numerical test is to reduce the time it takes a person to take in the information that is shown in the numerical reasoning questions.

Carly placed 50 marbles in a bag. Fifteen of the marbles are pink, 8 marbles are black,
yuradex [85]

When you go into this problem, you want to figure out your marble ammount to 50 so in this case we will say C for color and 50 for the total ammount of marbles.

We know 15 are pink, 8 are black, 2 are green, 18 are clear, and 7 are striped

15P/50

8B/50

2G/50

18C/50

7S/50 for a total of 50 marbles

Now we use the chart to decide our awnsers  

A. We know our propability of drawing a green and clear is 20/50 which if we simplify is a 2/5 ratio. If We put this in perspective 2/5 is rare and is unlikley to even.

B. We know a striped marble is 18/50 or 1.8/5 ratio which is mainly unlikely

C. We have 23/50 marbles that are black and pink, our propability is about 2.3/5 and gives us an even chance to get one of these

D. We know we have 33/50 marbles that are pink and clear and gives us a 3.3/5 chance of getting one of  these and gives us an even to likely chance of getting one of these.

E. If we have a total of 17 marbles in these 3 colors, we have a 1.7/5 chance of getting one of these and is probably impossible to unlikey.

The perimeter of a rectangular metal plate is 15 cm. Find the length of the rectangular plate (in decimals) whose width is 228 c
scoray [572]

The Solution.

Representing the problem in a diagram, we have

By formula,

P=2(L+W)

In this case,

P=15\operatorname{cm},L=?,W=\frac{22}{8}cm

Substituting these values in the formula above, we get

15=2(L+\frac{22}{8})

Clearing the bracket, we get

15=2L+(2\times\frac{22}{8})\begin{gathered} 15=2L+\frac{11}{2} \\  \\ 15=2L+5.5 \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} 15-5.5=2L \\ 9.5=2L \end{gathered}

Dividing both sides by 2, we get

L=\frac{9.5}{2}=4.75\approx4.8\operatorname{cm}

Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
