Well, let's add a little touch of joy to this math problem. To increase 350 by 5 percent, we first find 5 percent of 350, which is 17.5. Then, we add 17.5 to 350, giving us a total of 367.5. Just like adding a happy little tree to a painting, we've now increased 350 by 5 percent.
How would you estimate a 5 percent tax and a 15 percent tip of 52.75?
round 52.75 to 50, for the tip : find 10% which is just divide by 10, so 10% is 5, then divide 5 by 2 to get 5%, which 2.5, add 5 and 2.5 together, that is llike adding 10 and 5% togetheer, gives you 7.5, then add 7.5 onto 50, so 57.50 alternatively, divide 50 by 15, add the answer to that onto 50
What percent of 320 is 19.2?
320 percent means multiply the number by 3 and then take 20 percent. Now 20% is 20/100 or 1/5. So you can multiply 19.2x3 and then add 19.2x1/5.The answer is 61.44. 19.2x3=57.6 and 19.2 x 1/5. Now add these and you have 61.44.You can also just multiply by 3.20 since to change a percent to a decimal, you move the decimal place over 2 places to the left.
