Answer:
400 red boxes were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Our output value is 2000.
Step 2: We represent the unknown value with x.
Step 3: From step 1 above,2000=100%.
Step 4: Similarly, x=40%.
Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:
2000=100%
x=40%(2)
Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both
equations have the same unit (%); we have
2000/x = 100%/40%
Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives
x/2000 = 40%/100%
x=800
Therefore, 40% of 2000 is 800
and to find 50% just divide by 2
Answer:
2 * 10^-3 oz
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Number of staples per box = 6 * 10^3
Weight of staple box = 12 oz
Weight per staple = (weight of staple box / number of staples per box)
Weight per staple = 12 / 6 * 10^3
Weight per staple = 12 / 6 * 1000
= 12 / 6000
= 0.002 oz
= 2 * 10^-3 oz
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
X = 4
is the answer becuase if you multiply 2 by 4.5 you will get 9 and 9 is the same thing
if you multiply 2 by 5.5 = 11 so thats greater then 9 we want nine to be greater then the number 2x
so 2 x 4 is 8 and 8 < 9 so thats your answer
