Question

48 % of 480 plus 25% of 250 minus x equal to 200

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$48 \% \: of \: 480 + 25 \% \: of \: 250 - x = 200 \\ \frac{48}{100} \times 480 + \frac{25}{100} \times 250 - x = 200 \\ 0.48 \times 480 + 0.25 \times 250 - x = 200 \\ 230.4 + 62.5 - x = 200 \\ 292.9 - x = 200 \\ \implies \: 292.9 - 200 = x \\ \implies \: 92.9 = x \\ \implies \: x = 92.9$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

48% of 480 + 25% of 250 - x = 200

$\frac{48}{100} \times 480 + \frac{25}{100} \times 250 - x = 200 \\ \frac{48 \times 48}{10} + \frac{25 \times 25}{10} = 200 + x \\ \frac{48 \times 48 + 25 \times 25}{10} = 200 + x \\ \frac{2304 + 625}{10} = 200 + x \\ \frac{2929}{10} - 200= x \\ x = 292.9 - 200 \\ x = 92.9$

48% of 480 = 230.4

25% of 250 = 62.5

230.4 + 62.5 - x = 200

292.9 - x = 200

292.9 - 200 = x

x = 92.9
