Steps to solve:
x/3 + 1/4 = 1/3
~Subtract 1/4 to both sides
x/3 = 1/12
~Multiply 3 to both sides
x = 1/4
Best of Luck!
Answer:
3/4 times 18= 13.5
31.5-13.5=18
It cost 18 dollars for the skirt with a discount.
It cost 13.5 for the blouse as opposed to the original price of 18 dollars.
18(skirt)+13.5(blouse)=31.5
If you set up a proportion to find the original price of the skirt you will get the answer.
18/x=75/100
75x=18 times 100
75x=1800
75x/75=1800/75
x=24
The original price of the skirt is 24 dollars.
