Two numbers X and Y are respectively 20 percent and 28 percent less than a third number Z.By what percentage is the number Y less than the number X?
x = 4z/5 y = .72z 5x/4 = z By subsitution, we have: .9x = y Thus, x is 10% more than y, and Without Loss of Generality, y is 10% less than x.
How you put formula x percent of y equals x in discount question?
'x' percent of 'y' = [ 0.01x times y ] .
How much of 10 percent acid Solution must be mixed with 35 percent acid solution mixed to get 12 Gallos of 20 percent solution?
x = 10% solution y = 35% solution .1x+.35y=.20*12 x+y=12 y=12-x .1x+.35(12-x)=.20*12 .1x+4.2-.35x=2.4 -.25x=-1.8 .25x=1.8 x=7.2 gallons y=4.8 gallons
What is x if x minus 20 percent of x equals y?
x is y plus 25% of y.
X percent of y is y percent of?
X percent of y is y percent of X See related link.
What is the sum of ten percent of a number and another number?
x/10 + y where x and y are the two numbers respectively.
Is x percent of y equal to y percent of x?
Let [x percent of y] = (x/100)*y. And [y percent of x] = (y/100)*x.Use the ruSo the first one (x/100)*y = y*(x /100) = y*x/100.The second one: (y/100)*x = x*(y/100) = x * y / 100, which equals y*x/100.So yes they equal the same thing, so they are equal.

If x is 90 percent of y then y is how much percent of x?
The answer is 111 1/9%
40 percent of 125 jumpers equals X 25 percent of trousers equals Y What does 10 percent of 2X equal?
since X = 40% , 2X = 80% therefore 10% of 2X = 8% 8% of 125 = 10
What is the negation of this statement x plus y equals 10?
x+y does not equal 10, which can be written x+y ~= 10 or x+y != 10.
