Which of the following percentages is equivalent to the fraction below?

5/8

we follow the order operations to solve for the unknown value of x.

2(4x+3)=7x+5

Open the bracket on the LHS by multiplying each term by 2

(2*4x)+(2*3)=7x+5

8x+6=7x+5

Subtract 6 from both sides

8x+6-6=7x+5-6

8x=7x-1

Subtract 7x on both sides

8x-7x=7x-7x-1

X=-1

Thus, the value of unknown value of x is -1.

: we are to find the selling price of the sweater after subtracting the mark off price.

Mark off value=mark off rate*original price

Mark of value=25%*$87

We convert 25% into a fraction, which become 25/100=0.25. Then

Mark of value=0.25*$87=$21.75

The selling price of the sweater will be the original price less the mark off value. Then,

Thus, the approximate selling price of the sweater is $65.

the question requires we find the cost of two syringes.

If we let x be the cost of two syringes, then we set up a proportion equation with cost as numerator and number of syringes as denominator. The proportion equation becomes

Cross-multiply to solve for x

Rearranging the above

Divide both sides by 35

The cost of 2 syringes is $32.

The first three months of the year are January, February, and March. We need to find the total rainfall for these three months from the provided graph.

In the month of January, rainfall is between o and 1, which is halfway. Therefore, rainfall in January is 0.5 inches

On February, rainfall was 1 inch and on March the rainfall was 2 inches. Thus,

Total rainfall = 0.5 inches + 1 inches + 2 inches = 3.5 inches

Based on the above data, the horizontal axis will be tree type and vertical axis will represent the number of trees.

Based on these, a bar graph is appropriate to represent the number trees.

The initial step is to convert the decimal numbers into fractions.

4.4 becomes 44/10

4.25 becomes 425/100

Thus, the set of fractions is 9/2, 44/10, 10/3, 425/100. The least common denominator for 2, 10, 3, and 100 is 300, which we use to compare each options given.

9/2*300=1350

44/10*300=1320

10/3*300=1000

425/100*300=1275

From the above, 1350 is the greatest value which corresponds to 9/2. Thus, 9/2 is the greatest value of all the choices given.

we are asked to find the largest value from the options given. To solve this problem, we need to convert all the given values into fraction. Then find the least common denominator for all fractions, which we will use to multiply each fraction and make a comparison.

34÷96=

3/8=3/8

0.372=372/1000

37%=37/100

Now, we need to find the least common denominator of 48, 8, 1000, and 100, which is 6000. We multiply each fraction by 6000 as follows:

17/48*6000=2125

3/8*6000=2250

372/1000*6000=2232

37/100*6000=2220

From the above calculations, arranging the fraction from the largest to the smallest in order is: 3/8, 372/1000,37/100, and 17/48.  Thus, the greatest value is 3/8.

In order to solve for the value of x, we use the order of operations as follows:

The first step is to divide both sides by 4

Since 5 is subtracted, we add 5 to both sides to eliminate it from the left-hand side of the equation

Thus, the value of x is 7.

When dealing with percent problems, the following is utilized to find the unknown variable.

• Is means equals
• Of means multiply
• What means unknown (variable)

From the problem above, we are looking for the amount of gratuity the couple can leave.

Let t be the amount of gratuity. Translating into an equation, we have

The gratuity is 15% of the total bill, which becomes

Here, of means multiply and we also convert percent into decimal before multiplying.

So, the value of t=5.76

Thus, a couple will leave a gratuity of $5.76, which is about $6.00.

we are needed to find the amount Lana is left with after spending and investing the rest using the given information.

Amount Lana spends = 80% of $60= 80/100 *60 = $48

Amount left to invest = $(60-48) = $12

Lana is left with $12, which she invests and earns a profit of 80%.

Profit earned = 80% of $12 = 80/100 * 12= $9.20

So, Lana will have $12 + $9.20 = $21.60
