John's. Find the first common multiple of both denominators, in this case it's going to be ten, then the number you had to multiply to change these numbers to the common multiply you do to the numerators. so it works out like so:
Deena has a bottle of 4/10
John has a bottle of 25/10 or 2 1/2 (simplified)
Draw a number line with 10 positives and 10 negatives. Count from 0 to 8. Now, from 8, count back 12 spots. From that spot, go back to 0, which is their original position. The number you counted there is your answer.
20 qt = 80 c is ur answer. Hope this helps
Answer:
50 and 30.94
Step-by-step explanation:
The coat cost 46.5 pounds after a 7 percent reduction
so we can write:
- 46.5⇒ (100-7)⇒ 93 percent
- x(the initial price) ⇒ 100 percent
using the proprtionality relation:
x= (100*46.5)/93 = 50
so the initial price of the coat is 50 pounds
The jumper costs 32.8 pounds after an increase of 6 percent
so:
- 32.8⇒(100+6)⇒ 106 percent
- x (the initial price)⇒ 100 percent
using proportionality:
x= (100*32.8)/106 = 30.94
the initial price is 30.94 pounds
