Answer:
The question is asking which numbers are larger with respect to one another. An easy way to do this is to convert to decimals, or just memorize it. 1/2=0.5, 3/4=0.75, 2/3=0.666666. So descending order (largest to smallest) 3/4, 2/3, 1/2.
Q1
the clothes are on 45% discount, wich mean they become 55% of their original price.
30× 55% =16.5
64×55%=35.2
the new salary is 103% of the original
10×103% = 10.3
11600×103% = 11,948
Q2:
1+0.24= 1.24
1- 0.27= 0.73
86×140%= 120.4
440×119%= 523.6
82×90% = 73.8
480× 73%= 350.4
If you want to solve the equation -5 - (15 * y - 1) = 2 * (7 * y - 16) - y, you can calculate this using the following steps:
-5 - (15 * y - 1) = 2 * (7 * y - 16) - y
-5 - 15 * y + 1 = 14 * y - 32 - y
-5 + 1 + 32 = 14 * y - y + 15 * y
28 = 28 * y /28
y = 1
The result is 1.
