Answer:
1000 runners
Step-by-step explanation:
Take total number of runners to be -----------x
90% of x managed to complete the marathon= 90/100 × x =0.9x
30% of those who completed the marathon were men= 30% × 0.9x
=0.3×0.9x= 0.27x
=270 men completed the marathon; this means
0.27x=270--------------------------------find x by dividing both sides by 0.27
x= 270/0.27
x=1000 runners
310 is the nearest tenth

Answer
False
Step-by-step explanation:
Same case as Pablo's, more or less.
a = price for the desktop
b = price for the laptop
we know the laptop is 150 bucks more than the desktop,
b = a + 150.
how much is 7% of a? (7/100) * a, 0.07a.
how much is 9.5% of b? (9.5/100) * b, 0.095b.
total interests for the financing add up to 303,
0.07a + 0.095b = 303.

how much was it for the laptop? well b = a + 150.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let number of passion fruits=x
number of dragon fruits=x+10% of x
=x+0.1 x=(1+0.1)x=1.1 x
total number of fruits=x+1.1 x=(1+1.1)x=2.1 x
1.1x+60% of 1.1x+x+9% of x=2.1x+75
1.1 x+0.6 of 1.1 x+x+0.09 of x=2.1x+75
1.1x+0.66 x+x+0.09 of x =2.1x+75
2.1 x+0.75x-2.1 x=75
0.75 x=75
