Vinil7 [7]2 years ago

Answer: 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let the original amount be x, then after increasing it by 25%, we now have 1.25x

To get this back to x, we need to do 1.25x*(something) = x

this gives us that something = 1/1.25 = 0.8

meaning you need to decrease it by 100% - 80% = 20%

Ginny’s favorite cookie recipe requires 1 1/2 cups of sugar to make 24 cookies. How much sugar does Ginny need to make 36 of the
Delicious77 [7]

Ginny needs 2\frac{1}{4} cups of sugar to make 36 cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Sugar cups required for 24 cookies = 1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}\ cups

Ratio of sugar cups to cookies = \frac{3}{2}:24

Let,

x be the number of cups needed for 36 cookies.

Ratio of sugar cups to cookies = x:36\\

Using proportion;

Ratio of sugar cups to cookies :: Ratio of sugar cups to cookies

\frac{3}{2}:24::x:36

Product of mean = Product of extreme

24*x=\frac{3}{2}*36\\24x=54

Dividing both sides by 24

\frac{24x}{24}=\frac{54}{24}\\x=\frac{9}{4}\\x=2\frac{1}{4}

Ginny needs 2\frac{1}{4} cups of sugar to make 36 cookies.

At the movie theatre, child admission is
Dmitriy789 [7]
Child = $5.70
Adult = $9.80

- We can conclude that the amount of adult is double the amount of child tickets bought. (total of $556.60)

For this, you will need to divide the total amount by two and draw a tree chart with each of the numbers to get the seperation of the two. I would find out how many 9.80s or 5.70s go into $56.60 so you'll just have $500
