(Smallest to biggest) 0.3, 0.4, 1/2, 60%, 3/4
Turning all number to decimals
.3, .4, .5, .60, .75
Numbers are 5 and 7
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Let the two consecutive odd integers be x and x + 2. Their sum = 12
x + x + 2 = 12
2x + 2 = 12
2x = 10
x = 5
and x + 2 = 7
You need to get x= something.
To do this, you -4 on both sides to leave you with just an x value on the left. This gives -6x=-6
Then you need x on its own, so you divide both sides by -6.
-6/-6= 1, so x=1
First, convert the 65% to a real mathematical number. For percents, this is always done by dividing the 65% by 100%, or 65% / 100% = 0.650.
Second, find out what 65% of $60 is. This is the amount of the sale discount. This is always found by mulitplying 0.650 by the item's cost $60, like this:
0.650 x $60 = $39.00.
So for this sale, you'll save $39.00 on this item.
This means, the cost of the item to you is
