2 of the dozen eggs in a cartoon are cracked about what percent of the carton is not cracked

pychu [463]

well, a carton has a dozen, namely 12 or the 100%, two were cracked.

if we know 12 is the 100%, what is 2 off of it in percentage?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\cline{1-2}
12&100\\
2&x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{12}{2}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{2\cdot 100}{12}\implies x=16.\overline{66}$

How do you solve 7a- 17=4a+1

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

a = 6

Explanation:

7a − 17 = 4a + 1

Subtract 4a from both sides

7a − 17 − 4a = 4a + 1 − 4a

3a − 17 = 1

Add 17 to both sides

3a − 17 + 17 = 1 + 17

3a = 18

Divide both sides by 3

3a / 3 = 18 / 3

a = 6
