Given: Yu, Nailah, and Elena each bought between 7 and 9 yards of ribbon  Yu bought 3 pieces of ribbon. Nailah bought 5 pieces of ribbon. Elena bought 6 pieces of ribbon.

To find: Who can buy which ribbon

Solution:

Ribbon Sizes

1 2/3 = 5/3  yard

4/5  yard

3 1/2  = 7/2 Yard

Yu, Nailah, and Elena each bought between 7 and 9 yards of ribbon

Yu bought 3 pieces of ribbon

=> 3 * 5/3  = 5

  3 * 4/5  = 2.4

  3 * 7/2   = 10.5

Nailah  bought 5 pieces of ribbon

=> 5 * 5/3  = 8.33

   5 * 4/5  =  4

   5 * 7 /2   = 17.5

Elena bought 6 pieces of ribbon

=> 6 * 5/3  = 10

  6 * 4/5  = 4.8

  6 * 7 /2   = 21

Only value between 7 & 9 is 5 * 5/3  = 8.33

hence Nailah only can buy 1 2/3 = 5/3  yard ribbon

or there is some mistake in the data

Create an item with a selling price over $100 a discount of 25% and tax is 9%
Lana71 [14]

First, convert the 25% to a real mathematical number. For percents, this is always done by dividing the 25% by 100%, or 25% / 100% = 0.250.

Second, find out what 25% of $100 is. This is the amount of the sale discount. This is always found by mulitplying 0.250 by the item's cost $100, like this:

0.250 x $100 = $25.00.

So for this sale, you'll save $25.00 on this item.

This means, the cost of the item to you is

$100 - $25.00 = $75.00.

Alternatively, you can think about it this way. The item is 25% off. This means you'll pay 75.000% of the total cost (100% - 25% = 75.000%).

Now what's 75.000% of the total cost?

0.750 x $100 = $75.00.

Just like the result above, the sale price on the item is $75.00.

Hope this helps you on your assignment! :)
