Step-by-step explanation:
987 → 789
987 - 789 = 198
876 → 678
876 - 678 = 198
765 → 567
765 - 567 = 198
654 → 456
654 - 456 = 198
543 → 345
543 - 345 = 198
432 → 234
432 - 234 = 198
321 → 123
321 - 123 = 198
Generally it is always like that:
3 ≤ x ≤ 9
100x + 10(x-1) + (x - 2) → 100(x - 2) + 10(x - 1) + x
(100x + 10(x - 1) + (x - 2)) - (100(x-2) + 10(x-1) + x)
= 100x + 10(x - 1) + (x - 2) - 100(x - 2) - 10(x - 1) - x <em>cancel 10(x - 1)</em>
= 100x + x - 2 - 100x + 200 - x <em>cancel 100x and x</em>
= 100 - 2
= 198
Use the proportion 8/64 = 12/y. Cross multiply to get 8y = 768. Divide both sides by 8 to get y=96
Can u take a picture of it
The original price of the item will be $ 480.When there is 75% off on the original price.
<h3>What is the percentage?</h3>
The quantity of anything is stated as though it were a fraction of a hundred. A fraction of 100 can be used to express the ratio.
The right question is
"Joyce saved $120 on an item that was 75 % off. What was the original price?"
Given data;
% off = 75
Amount saved $120
Let the original price of the item is x
75 % of x + $120 = x
0.75x+ 120 =x
0.25 x =120
x=120/0.25
x=480
Hence, the original price of the item will be $ 480.
