The simplest ratio is 1/3. Equivalent ratios would be 3/9 and 5/15.
Tangerine is simply color orange, which is an addition of red and yellow colors. To analyze if the portions written below are reasonable, the given sum must equal to the sum of the individual red and yellow parts.
Total Red + Total Yellow = 5(3/10)
3(9/10) + 2(3/8) ? 5(3/10
3.45 ? 1.5
3.45 ≠ 1.5
<em>Since they are not equal, then it means the portions are unreasonable.</em>
Answer:
$525
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the original price by using the formula x - 0.36x = 336, where x is the original price, 0.36 is the discount percentage (converted to decimal form), and 336 is the total amount paid after the discount is applied:
To check and further understand why the formula works, we can simply apply the discount to the original price and subtract the number from the original price:
525 * 0.36 = 189
525 - 189 = 336
Modeling the first formula gives us:
525 - (0.36 * 525) = 336
525 - 189 = 336
