Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us suppose x percent of Bill's salary is equal to Jacks's salary.

Thus, we can write

x% of 87.50 = 70

Mathematically, we can write this as

$0.0x\times87.50=70$

Solve the equation for x

$0.0x=\frac{70}{87.50}\\\\x=\frac{70}{87.50}\times100\\\\x=80$

Therefore, Jack's salary is 80% of Bill's salary

I need help on this problem! <br><br> g(h+2/3)=1 for h

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

$g(h + \frac{2}{3} ) = 1 \\ \\ gh + \frac{2}{3} g = 1 \\ \\ gh = 1 - \frac{2}{3} g \\ \\ h = (1 - \frac{2}{3} g ) \div g \\ \\ h = (1 - \frac{2}{3} g ) \times \frac{1}{g} \\ \\ h = \frac{1}{g} - \frac{2}{3}$
