Answer:

The profit percentage is 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution :

Selling price = Rs. 600

Profit = 1/5 of the selling price

Profit percentage = ??

Profit = 1/5 of the selling price

600 × 1/5 = 120

Profit = Rs. 120

Cost price = Selling Price - Profit

= 600 - 120

= 480

Profit pecentage -

P% = (SP - CP)/CP × 100

= (600 - 480)/480 × 100

= 120/480 × 100

= 1/4 × 100

= 25%

Hence, the profit percentage is 25%.

A lion paced up and down the ridge 10 times. The ridge is 5 ft. 3 in. long. How far did the lion travel? (12 in.=1 ft.)

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

105 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

5 x 12 = 60

So 5 feet is 60 inches.

60 + 3 = 63

That makes the ridge 63 inches long.

When the lion went up the ridge, it traveled 63 inches.

When the lion went back down the ridge, it traveled another 63 inches, totaling 126 inches.

The lion did this 10 times.

126 x 10 = 1260

Divide 1260 by 12 to find the measurement in feet.

1260 ÷ 12 = 105

Find the mode: 16,12,10,15,7,916

Airida [17]

The mode is the value from a given set of data that occurs most often. It is the data with the highest frequency.

Given:

16,12,10,15,7,9,16

Form the above data given;

Rearranging for easy identification, we have;

7,9,10,12,15,16,16

$\begin{gathered} 7\text{ appears once} \\ 9\text{ appears once} \\ 10\text{ appears once} \\ 12\text{ appears once} \\ 15\text{ appears once} \\ 16\text{ appears twice} \end{gathered}$

From the above, we can deduce that the mode is 16 because it appears the most often. It appears twice.

Therefore, the mode is 16.
