Answer: 13%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

5000

10% of 5000=500

5% of 5000=250

25%=500+500+250= 1250 rupees

so...

5000-1250= 3750 INR, which is the original price, <u>BEFORE THE 25% WAS ADDED</u>

but..

They only want a 10% discount of the price which is 25% above the cost (5000). So essentially we want to find  15%, because 25%-10%=15%

so if...

10%=500

5%=250

15%=750 INR

this means the price with the 10% discount off 25%= 4250 INR (5000-750)

now we need to find the percentage change. For this we need to subtract the price with the 15% discount with the price BEFORE THE 25% was added

e.g 4250-3750= 500INR

Then.. divide this price with the original price before the 25% was added

e.g 500/3750= 2/15=0.13

So...

Convert 0.13 into a percentage=13%

The PERCENTAGE PROFIT of the owner is 13%

P.S Please could someone double check this answer as I am only 15 years old and may have gotten some working out wrong! Thank you

Harman [31]

Answer:

n = 8.15

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 is 4 & 3/5 % of what number?

Rewrite this as:    3/8 is (4  3/5)% of what number?

Convert 4 3/5% into a decimal:  0.046

Then write out and solve the equation 3/8 = 0.046n, where n is the unknown number.

Dividing both sides by 0.046, we get n = 8.15

 ^ This is the hundreds place

Look at the number after it, if it's 5 or more we round up, if it's 4 or less we round down.

The number is 5, so we round up to 4700.
