Answer: £20.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the old price = £x
Percent increase. = 10%
Increment. = 10% of £x
= 10x/100
Now new price = £22
To determine the old price we have
x + 10x/100. = 22
We now multiply everything by 100 to make it a linear expression
100x + 10x = 2200
110x = 2200, therefore
x. = 2200/110
= £20
Therefore, the price before the increase. = £20.

Answer:
a) 26
b) 26/3
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
1) First, you have to turn 4 1/3 into an improper fraction, so you get 13/3
2) Then you do 13/3 *6/1 =78/3 (so you multiply both numerators and denominators)
3) Lastly, 78/3 can be simplified as 26
b)
1) First you turn both fractions into improper fractions, so you get 13/5 and 10/3
2) Then you do 13/5*10/3 (so you multiply both numerators and denominators)
3) You get 130/15, which can be simplified as 26/3
