During 2002 a town had a total snowfall of 92 inches, which was an increase of 15% from the previous year. What was the total snowfall in the previous year?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 1.) Divide 92 by 100 so that it can be 100 pieces or 100% 92/100= 0.92
2.) Multiply the 15% be 0.92 to get how much more inches in snow that they got this year than last year. 15 X 0.92= 13.8
3.) Since we have how much more inches of snow they got all we need to do is subtract 13.8 from 92. 92-13.8= 78.2
4.) In the previous year the town had received 78.2in of snow.
I hope this helps :)

Simplify. 10/27 divided by 5/9

Answers

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,10/27÷5/9

So we will have to be careful when solving this kind of question

So let's solve

10/27÷5/9

To solve we will have to convert the division to multiplication and during this process the 5/9 will actually change to 9/5

10/27×9/5

If you calculate it well,you will get

2/3
