Answer: 2.4 pounds per dollar</h3>
Explanation:
We can set up the ratio
12 pounds : 5 dollars
Then divide both parts of that ratio by 5 so that the "5 dollars" becomes "1 dollar"
The ratio 12 pounds : 5 dollars is equivalent to 2.4 pounds : 1 dollar
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
total price was reduced by $ 7
let x = the total price........ x - 7
he bought 10.....and it cost him $ 130
10(x - 7) = 130
10x - 70 = 130
10x = 130 + 70
10x = 200
x = 200/10
x = 20 <====== original price

Step-by-step explanation:
Kelly bought 3 stuffed animals.
Answer:
The ticket increased 57% of its original price
The baggage price was 44.5 increased 0.11% and then became 50
Step-by-step explanation:
So if the amount was 200 and now is 350, we should use division.
200 ÷ 350 = 0.5714285714285714 which you can round to 0.57 or as many digits as the question asked for. In thise case I will use 0.57
0.57 converted to percentage is 57%
About the second question
now you know the amount after increase and the percentage. So all you have to do is reverse.
11% = 0.11
0.11 ✕ 50 = 5.5
this means the price increased 5.5
50 - 5.5 = 44.5
First, divide 648 by 9. 648/9=72. Now we know that Ashley covers 72 miles in an hour. In order to get the number of miles she covers in 7 hours we must multiply 72 by 7 which equals 504. So Ashley would drive 504 miles in 7 hours.
