Question

Answer each question. Show your reasoning. a. 125% of e is 30. What is e? b. 35% of f is 14. What is f?

Answer 1

Answer: a. e= 24

b. f = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

a. 125% of e = 30

125/100 × e = 30

1.25 × e = 30

1.25e = 30

e = 30/1.25

e = 24

b. 35% of f = 14

35/100 × f = 14

0.35 × f = 14

0.35f = 14

f = 14/0.35

f = 40
