Question

I need help put you have to round to the nearest tenth percent!

Answer 1

16) 1,200 * .1 = 120. That is 10%.

1,200 - 120 = 1,080. Final price.

18(??) ) 5,700 * .6 = 3,420. That is 60%.

5,700 - 3,420 = 2,280. Final price.

Answer 2

15) I'm not positive what this question is asking because there are no directions showing. If you are trying to determine what 57 is to 98 as compared to x out of 100 (finding the percentage out of 100):

57/98=x/100
cross multiply
5700= 98x
divide both sides by 98
58.16= x
58.2 rounded= x

***This may not be correct if that is not what the question is asking


16) sale price= subtract original price times the discount from the original price

sale price= $1200 - ($1200 * 10%)
sale price= $1200 - ($1200 * 0.10)
sale price= $1200 - $120
sale price= $1080 sale price of the bicycle


17) sale price= subtract original price times the discount from the original price

sale price= $5700 - ($5700 * 60%)
sale price= $5700 - ($5700 * 0.60)
sale price= $5700 - $3420
sale price= $2280 sale price of the car

Hope this helps! :)
