The original size of the bottle is 17.5 ounces.

The soap manufacturer has increased the size of his bottles. This means that 18.4 ounce bottle is bigger than the original size of the bottle. The bottle was increased by 5%, this means that the new bottle is 105% (100% + 5%) bigger than the initial size of the bottle.

To determine the original size of the bottle, this formula would be used:

New bottle size / total percentage increase in the bottle  =   initial size of the bottle

18.4 / 1.05 = 17.5 ounces

50% more than what number is 20% less than 60% more than 10?
k0ka [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by decoding this :)

First lets do 60% more than 10; 16 (mental math)

Next, lets do 20% less than 16;  x/16 = 80/100 (Equation)

After solving by cross multiplying & then simplifying (make sure both denominators are 100), you should get 12.8 as your final #! Hope this helped.

Vertical angles are identical, so if X is 100 degrees, then Y is also 100 degrees.

half of 100 = 100 / 2 = 50 degrees.

Team D used a recipe that consists of 20 cups of sand, 2 cups of flour, and 3 cups of water. How does the percent of sand in Tea
spayn [35]

Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Team D used a recipe that consists of 20 cups of sand, 2 cups of flour, and 3 cups of water.

Question asked:

How does the percent of sand in Team D's recipe compare to that of the other teams ?

Solution:

Team D used a recipe that consists of sand = 20 cups

Team D used a recipe that consists of  flour =  2 cups

Team D used a recipe that consists of  water = 3 cups

Total number of cups together = 20 + 2+ 3 =25 cups

Now we will have to find percent of cups of sand out of the total number of cups.

By using formula of percentage,

Percent = \frac{Value}{Total \ value}\times100

             =\frac{20}{25} \times100\\=\frac{2000}{25} =80\%

Therefore, 80% of sand in Team D's recipe compare to that of the other teams.
