Question

The price of the house the friends want to buy is £160000. The three companies need different amounts for the deposit.

The Amounts needed are below:
9% =
1/5 =
12.5% =

How do you work these out please?

Answer 1

9%=169212.672 because 160000 euros= 169212.672 dollars times 0.9

1/5= 37602.816 because 160000. euros= 169212.672 U.S. dollars times 1/5

12.5%=2350176 because 160000. euros = 169212.672 U.S. dollars times 12.5%

Answer 2

If you are talking about a down payment for the house then you would find the amount of the original value that is needed.

9% = 160000 * .09 = 1440

1/5 = 160000 * .2 = 32000

12.5% = 160000 * .125 = 20000

Find the percent of a number by multiplying it's decimal equivalent by that number.
