Answer:

65.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

After eating a meal at a restaurant, we decided to tip 25%, building a grand total of $87.50.

To find:

Price before tip

Solution:

87.50 × 25% = 21.875

~Round~: 21.875 to 21.88

87.50 - 21 .88 = 65.62

Thus the price before the tip is 65.62

Check Answer:

<em>Formula: Higher number - Lower number ÷ original number × 100</em>

<em>Solve: </em>

<em>87.50 - 65.62 = 21.88</em>

<em>21.88 ÷ 87.50=0.25005714285</em>

<em>0.25005714285 × 100 = 25.0057142857</em>

<em>Round - 25%</em>

MaRussiya [10]
If you would like to know the number of minutes of long-distance calls you made, you can calculate this using the following steps:

3.3 cents = $0.033
m = $3.40 / 3.3 cents
m = $3.40 / $0.033 = 3.40 / 0.033
m = 103.03 minutes 

The correct result would be <span>103.03 minutes.</span>

Find the geometric mean of 2 and 3
Sav [38]
The first step in solving this problem is taking 2 and 3 and multiplying them (2 * 3 = 6) .
Now, for the second step, we will cube it. Since there are 2 numbers, we are going to use the 2nd root (2sqrt(6)) This will give us: 4.89897948557 or 5 if you would round it. This would be the Geometric Mean.

Please, someone, help with this question. This is my last question.
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

4.43 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the hot tub is

V = l*w*h

We are given the volume in gallons which we need to convert to cubic inches

1 gallon = 231  in^3

350 gallons *231 in ^3/1 gallon = 80850 in ^3

Substituting in what we know, we can find the height of the tub

80850 = 76*60 *h

17.76026316 is the height of the tub

If the tub is 1/4 full

We take 1/4 of the height

1/4 * 17.76 = 4.432565789

The approximate height of the water is 4.43 inches
