The price of a shirt is $20. If you get a 25% discount, how much will the shirt cost?

5 answers

The 25% discount is equivalent to a savings of 0.25 x $20 = $5.
So the discounted price of the shirt is $20 - $5 = $15.
you were assigned to make souvenirs. you have 4m 20cm of ribbon which you can use. you want to cut the ribbon equally into 70 cm long pieces. how many smaller ribbons can you make?
HINT: 1m 20cm = 120cm
First, we need to convert the total length of the ribbon to cm:

4m + 20cm = (4 x 100cm) + 20cm = 420cm

Now, we need to divide the total length of the ribbon by the length of each souvenir ribbon:

420cm ÷ 70cm = 6

Therefore, you can make 6 smaller ribbons from the 4m 20cm ribbon.
for every 2 apples you have 8 bananas. how many bananas are there if you have 3 apples
If for every 2 apples you have 8 bananas, then for 1 apple you would have 8/2 = 4 bananas.

Therefore, for 3 apples, you would have:

3 apples x 4 bananas/apple = 12 bananas
