55 x (1 - (10/100)) = 55 x 0.9 = $49.50
It is 5.5 pounds
50 + 10% = 50 x (1 + 10/100) = 50 x 1.1 = 55 Therefore, adding 10 percent to 50 gives 55.
5.5 percent into a fraction = 55/1000 5.5% = 5.5%/100% * 10/10 = 55/1000 in fraction
550 percent as a fraction = 550/100 or 55/10 550% = 550%/100% = 550/100 or 55/10 in fraction
Expressed as a percentage, 10/55 x 100 = 18.18 recurring (that is, 18.181818...) percent.
In math "of" means multiple so it really says what is 10% times 55 or .10*55 or 5.50 dollars. Hope this helps =D
