Question

115% = 38x + 161y
What is 100%?

Answer 1

32.3x + 136.85y

Explanation:

Let's take it as,

→ z = 100%

Forming the equation,

→ z + 15% = 38x + 161y

Now the value of z will be,

→ z + 15% = 38x + 161y

→ z = 38x + 161y - (1 - (15/100))

→ z = (38x + 161y) × (1 - 0.15)

→ z = (38x + 161y) × (0.85)

→ [ z = 32.3x + 136.85y ]

Hence, the answer is above.

Answer 2

• 100% is 32.3x + 136.85y

------------------------

Given

• 115% = 38x + 161y

Find 100%

• 100% = 115% - 15%

• (38x + 161y) - 15% =
• (38x + 161y)*(1 - 0.15) =
• (38x + 161y)*0.85 =
• 38x*0.85 + 161y*0.85 =
• 32.3x + 136.85y
