Question

Kitchen flooring is sold at £8 per 1 metre length what is the cost for 80cm

Answer 1

In this situation, I'd use a proportion:
`(8)/(100)=(x)/(80)`

Multiply diagonally:
`100x=640`

Divide by 100 on both sides:
`x=6.4`

Therefore, 80cm of kitchen flooring would cost £6.40.

Answer 2

it would cost 6.4
sorry I do not know how to put up that money sign
