A) $\frac{65}{100}x$
B) $0.65x$
C) $1.35x$
D) $1.65x$
E) $3.35x$

The amount of sodium in the new soup recipe is $100\% - 35\% = 65\%$ of the amount of sodium in the old soup recipe. So, the amount of sodium in the new recipe is $\frac{65}{100}x=\boxed{\textbf{(A)}\ \frac{65}{100}x\text{ and }\textbf{(B)}\ 0.65x}$.
NO!! This are the options.

Choose 2 answers:

A. 0.33x

B. x - 33

C. 0.67x

D. x - 33x

E. (1 - 33/100) x
To find the amount of sodium per serving in the new soup recipe, we need to subtract 33 percent from the old amount. This can be written as $\left(1 - \frac{33}{100}\right)x.$ Simplifying this expression gives $\left(\frac{100 - 33}{100}\right)x = \frac{67}{100}x.$ Therefore, the correct expressions for the amount of sodium in the new soup recipe are $\boxed{\textbf{(C)}\ 0.67x \text{ and } \textbf{(E)}\ \left(1 - \frac{33}{100}\right)x}.$

On Monday, Florencia's hair was h centimeters long. She got a haircut on Tuesday, so her hair was only 75%, percent of the length it was on Monday.

Which of the following expressions could represent how many centimeters long Florencia's hair was after the haircut?

Choose 2 answers:

A. h (1 - 0.75)

B. (1 - 75/100) h

C. 3/4h

D. 0.75h

E. 1/4h
Florencia's hair was only 75% of its original length after the haircut.

This can be expressed as $0.75h$, where $h$ represents the original length of her hair.

Additionally, we can also express this as $(1 - \frac{75}{100})h$. Simplifying this expression gives $(1 - \frac{3}{4})h$, which is equivalent to $\frac{1}{4}h$.

Therefore, the correct expressions for the length of Florencia's hair after the haircut are $\boxed{\textbf{(D)}\ 0.75h\text{ and }\textbf{(E)}\ \frac{1}{4}h}$.
