The mistake he makes is by saying 3/4 + 1/4 = 4/8

The denominators stay the same when adding fractions, and the denominators must be the same value.

So instead, he should have 3/4 + 1/4 = 4/4 = 1

Overall, 5 3/4 + 2 1/4 = 5+2+1 = 8

The cost of a book was decreased from 60 to 50 by what percent the price decrased with solution​
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The price decreased by 16 1/3%, or approximately 16.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for percent change. If the answer is negative, it is a percent decrease. if the answer is positive, it is a percent increase.

percent change = (new price - old price)/(old price) * 100%

In this case, use:

new price = 50

old price = 60

percent change = (new price - old price)/(old price) * 100%

percent change = (50 - 60)/60 * 100%

percent change = -10/60 * 100%

percent change = -1/6 * 100%

percent change = -100/6% = -50/3% = -16 1/3%

The price decreased by 16 1/3%, or approximately 16.3%
