75% * 80% of the total price is 900,000, what is the total price?
Do you multiplayer .75 and .80 first?
0.75 0.8 = 0.6 = 60%
0.6x = 900,000
Can you explain? I need to see how it works :D
I meant multiply (not multiplayer) weird autocorrect.
540,000 + 900,000?
Correction:
0.75 * 0.8 = 0.6 = 60%
So it's 1,440,000?
Oh yeah thanks I just overdid myself :/
No,
0.6x = 900,000
x = 900,000 / 0.6
x = 1,500,000
To solve this problem, we can follow these steps:
1. First, let's find the product of 75% and 80% of the total price.
- 75% can be written as the decimal 0.75, and 80% as the decimal 0.80.
- Multiply these decimals together: 0.75 * 0.80 = 0.60
2. Next, let's denote the total price as "x".
- We can create an equation using the information given: 0.60x = 900,000
3. Now, solve the equation to find the value of "x".
- Divide both sides of the equation by 0.60: x = 900,000 / 0.60
4. Calculate the right side of the equation: 900,000 / 0.60 = 1,500,000
Therefore, the total price is 1,500,000.
