A fraction can compare the small parts of a whole, while it could also identify a division problem
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
HI there!
From the question;
Principal (p) = 300
Annual rate (r) = 3%
Time (t) = 4 yrs
Now;
Interest (I) = 
I = 
I = 
Therefore the interest earned is 36.
Again;
New balance (A) = principal + interest
= 300+36
Therefore, the new balance is 336.
Hope it helps!
Answer:
$16.50
Step-by-step explanation:
If Jason spends $3.75 and Maya spends three times that amount, Maya spends 3.75(3) or $11.25. If Tia spends $5.25 more than Maya, Tia spends 11.25 + 5.25 or $16.50.
Answer: 1045 cm of red ribbon and 1045 cm of yellow ribbon
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let R represent the amount red ribbon and Y represent the amouont of yellow ribbon.
- bought the same lengths of red and yellow: R = Y
- after used 286 of red, yellow is 5 times the remaining red; 5(R - 836) = Y
Use substitution method to solve:
5(R - 836) = R
5R - 4180 = R <em>distributed 5 on the left side</em>
4R - 4180 = 0 <em>subtracted R from both sides</em>
4R = 4180 <em>added 4180 to both sides</em>
R = 1045 <em>divided both sides by 4</em>
You have to use a proportion.
3.5/18= 1.5/x
3.5x=27
x= 7.7 cm
