<h3>Answer:   98%</h3>

==================================================

Explanation:

The customer saves 15%, but still pays the remaining 85%. The two percentages add to 100%.

85% of $900 = 0.85*900 = 765

After the 15% discount is applied, the customer would pay $765

---------

Then after the sale, the price is marked up by 15%

This means we'll multiply by 1.15 to indicate a 15% increase

1.15*765 = 879.75

Notice that we don't get back to the original price (900) even though we increased by the same percentage as before. This is because 15% of a smaller number is a smaller amount; ie we have a smaller increase compared to the decrease earlier.

---------

Afterwards, divide the value 879.75 over the original price of $900

879.75/900 = 0.9775

Move the decimal point two spots to the right to end up with 97.75%

That percentage rounds to 98% when rounding to the nearest whole percent.

Lauren bikes 1 1/3 miles in 1/1/0 hour. What is her rate of speed in miles per hour?
Amanda [17]

speed = distance / time

1 1/3 = 4/3

so

speed = (4/3) / (1/10)

= (4/3) * 10

= 40/3 mph

or 13 1/3 mph

Hope this helps!
