Maya is driving 120 miles to her grand mothers house. she drives 35% of the distance before stopping for lunch. how far does she drive before lunch?

Answers

35% as a decimal is 0.35

0.35 x 120 = 42

Therefore she drove 42 miles before stopping for lunch :)

0.35 * 20 = 42 , <<== this is your answer .

35% x 20 = 42 % , but 35% as a decimal is 0.35 so 0.35* or 0.35 x 20 = 42

Um what would u need help with

18% of what number is 43?

Answers

The required number is 238.88 and 18% of it would be 43.

What is the percentage?

The percentage is defined as a ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

The % formula is used to calculate a percentage of a whole in terms of 100. Calculating percentages indicated above can be readily computed using the formula below:

Percentage = (Value/Total Value) × 100

Let's the unknown number would be x.

According to the given question, we have to determine the evaluation of 18% of x = 43.

⇒ 18% of x = 43

18% is expressed as 18/100 in fractional form

⇒ (18/100)x = 43

18/100 is expressed as 0.18 in decimal form

⇒ (0.18)x = 43

⇒ x = 43/(0.18)

Apply the division operation, and we get

⇒ 238.88

Therefore, 18% of 238.88 would be 43.

1. We assume, that the number 43 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task. Also that x is the value that we are looking for.

So you write down 100%=43

Next x% equals 18 of the output value.

so you write it down as x%=18

Now we have two simple equations:
Which is 100%=43 and x%=18

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=43/18

Now we just have to solve the simple equation.

Solution for 18 is what percent of 43?

(100/x)*x=(43/18)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

100=2.38888888889*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.38888888889) to get x
100/2.38888888889=x
41.86=x
x=41.86

now we have:
18 is 41.86% of 43

How is the difference 14/15-5/12 written as a decimal?

Answers

14 / 15 - 5 / 12 LCM of 12 and 15 is 60.

(14/15)*(60/60) - (5/12)*(60/60)

= 56 / 60 - 25 / 60

= (56 - 25) / 60

= 31 / 60. To change to decimal, use your calculator.

= 0.51667
