Which of the following is the weight of the cargo in a truck if 2/3 of the cargo weighs 530 pounds (lb)?
795 lb
1030 lb
1590 lb
688 lb
Correct Answer : A
The truck carries a whole cargo which equals 1. If we let the weight of the cargo to be p, then we set up a proportion equation with weight as numerator and fraction of cargo as denominator.

Solve for value of p by cross products

Multiply both sides by 3/2 a reciprocal of 2/3


The truck carries a cargo weighing 795 lb.

We use the order of operation to solve for the unknown value of x.
3(3x+3)=8x+5
Multiply 3 with each number in the brackets
(3*3x)+(3*3)=8x+5
9x+9=8x+5
Subtract 9 from both sides
9x+9-9=8x+5-9
9x=8x-4
Subtract 8x on both sides
9x-8x=8x-8x-4
x=-4
Thus, the unknown value of x is -4.

Explanation
The initial step is to convert the decimal numbers into fractions.
5.2 becomes 52/10
5.15 becomes 515/100
Next, find the least common denominator of 3, 10, and 100, which is 300. We use this value and multiply each fraction.
7/3*300=700
52/10*300=1560
13/3*300=1300
515/100*300=1545
From the above, 1560 is the greatest value which corresponds to 52/10. Thus, 5.2 is the greatest value of all the choices given.

We are required to find the doctor’s earning in 4 weeks after taking off taxes.
The first step is to find the total weekly deductions as follows:
Total weekly tax=federal income tax + state income tax + Social Security tax
Total weekly tax=$(85.00+40.00+81.00)
Total tax=$206.00
The next step is to find the weekly income after deducting total taxes
Weekly net income=gross income-total tax
Weekly net income=$(980.00-206.00)=$774.00
In one week, the net income of the doctor is $774.00 and after 4 weeks, the net income will be 4 times his weekly earning

The selling price of the sweater is marked price less the mark off value.
Mark off value=mark off rate*original price
Mark of value=30% of $95
