15 R 58 R 125 How do I solve this Can I get step by step in
15% = R +58% *(R- 1.25%) How do I solve this? Can I get step by step instructions?
Solution
We can convert all the percentages in numerical form and then solve,
1%=1/100
So, We will multiply both left and right sides by 100
100*15% = (R+ 58%*(R-1.25%))*100
15= 100R +58(R-1.25%)
15=100R+ 58R- 1.25*58%
15=158 R -72.5%
Multiplying by 100 both sides
100*15= 100*(158R-72.5%)
1500 =15800R -72.5
158R=1572.5
R= 0.0996
