Let x = width
x+1 is then the length
2x+2(x+1)=66
2x+2x+2=66
4x=64
x=16
deck will be 16x17, nice for a BBQ. :)
The prime factorisation of 600 is given by
Therefore, a = 3, b = 3, c = 5 and d = 2.
He had 40 pencils left after he gave away 8, so originally he had 40 + 8 pencils, which is 48.
Now, he bought 4 packages, which had a total of 48 pencils, so divide 48 by 4, which is 12. He had 12 pencils in each package.
To determine the solution arithmetically, first add 8 to 40, then divide 48 by 4.
To determine the solution algebraically, set up and solve the equation 40 = 4x - 8.
Each package contained 12 pencils.
Hope this helps
Answer:
23400 x 8/100 = 1872 = the loss
1872 : 12 = 156= the loss each month
156/1872*100% = 8.33 % then round it
