Juan’s family took a road trip to the Grand Canyon. Juan Fell asleep after they had travelled 177 miles. If the total length of the trip was 300 miles. What percentage of the total trip had they traveled when Juan fell asleep
They had traveled 177 miles out of 300, which is equivalent to 59% of the total trip.
A bakery sold 224 chocolate chip cupcakes in a day which was 56% of the total number of cupcakes sold that day how many total cupcakes did the bakery sell that day
A bakery sold 224 chocolate chip cupcakes in a day which was 56% of the total number of cupcakes sold that day how many total cupcakes did the bakery sell that day
Let the total number of cupcakes sold be x. Then, we can write an equation based on the information given:
224 = 0.56x
To solve for x, we can divide both sides by 0.56:
x = 224 ÷ 0.56
x = 400
Therefore, the bakery sold a total of 400 cupcakes that day.
What is the result when the number 60 is increased by 50%
To increase 60 by 50%, we need to find 50% of 60 and then add it to 60:
50% of 60 = 0.5 × 60 = 30
Therefore, when 60 is increased by 50%, we get:
60 + 30 = 90
So the result is 90.
What is the result when the number 96 is increased g 86%
To increase 96 by 86%, we need to find 86% of 96 and then add it to 96:
86% of 96 = 0.86 × 96 = 82.56
Therefore, when 96 is increased by 86%, we get:
96 + 82.56 = 178.56
So the result is 178.56.
The population of a city increases 1.1% per year. If this years population is 368,000 what will next years population be to the nearest individual
To find next year's population, we need to increase this year's population by 1.1%.
First, we need to convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100:
1.1% ÷ 100 = 0.011
Next, we can multiply the current population by 1 plus the decimal form of the percentage increase:
Next year's population = 368,000 × (1 + 0.011)
Next year's population = 368,000 × 1.011
Next year's population = 371,848
Rounding to the nearest individual, next year's population will be 371,848.
The population of a city increases by 4.1% per year if this years population is 361,000 what will next years population be to the nearest individual
To find next year's population, we need to increase this year's population by 4.1%.
First, we need to convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100:
4.1% ÷ 100 = 0.041
Next, we can multiply the current population by 1 plus the decimal form of the percentage increase:
Next year's population = 361,000 × (1 + 0.041)
Next year's population = 361,000 × 1.041
Next year's population = 375,001
Rounding to the nearest individual, next year's population will be 375,001.
The population of a city increases by 0.5 per year if this years population is 288,000 what will next years population be to the nearest individual
To find next year's population, we need to add 0.5 to this year's population:
Next year's population = 288,000 + 0.5
Next year's population = 288,000.5
Rounding to the nearest individual, next year's population will be 288,001.
Julieta went shopping for a new phone sales tax where she lives is 7% the price of the phone is 29$. Find the total price including tax round to the nearest cent
To find the total price including tax, we need to add the sales tax (7% of $29) to the original price:
Sales tax = 7% of $29 = 0.07 × 29 = $2.03
Total price including tax = $29 + $2.03 = $31.03
Rounding to the nearest cent, the total price including tax is $31.03.
London went shopping for a new video game because of a saw the store was offering a 20% discount. If the price on the tag was $50 , what would be the price after the discount but before tax, to the nearest dollar and cent
To find the price after the 20% discount, we need to multiply the original price by 0.8 (since a 20% discount means paying 80% of the original price):
Price after 20% discount = $50 × 0.8 = $40
Rounding to the nearest dollar and cent, the price after the discount (but before tax) is $40.00.
One year , the population of a city was 209,000 several years later it was 217,360 find the percent increase
To find the percent increase, we need to find the difference between the new population and the old population, divide that by the old population, and then multiply by 100 to express the result as a percentage:
Difference = 217,360 - 209,000 = 8,360
Percent increase = (Difference / Old Population) x 100
Percent increase = (8,360 / 209,000) x 100
Percent increase = 0.04 x 100
Percent increase = 4%
Therefore, the percent increase in population was 4%.
One year the population of a city was 82,000 several years later it was 68,060 find the percent decrease
To find the percent decrease, we need to find the difference between the new population and the old population, divide that by the old population, and then multiply by 100 to express the result as a percentage:
Difference = 68,060 - 82,000 = -13,940
(Note that the difference is negative because the population decreased.)
Percent decrease = (Difference / Old Population) x 100
Percent decrease = (-13,940 / 82,000) x 100
Percent decrease = -0.17 x 100
Percent decrease = -17%
Therefore, the percent decrease in population was 17%.
