The price of a four-star dinner was $100 two decades ago. a report says that a dinner is 250% of what it was 20 years ago, how much would it cost today?

The dinner will cost $250 today.

Explanation

The price of a four-star dinner was $100 two decades ago and now the cost of the dinner is 250% of what it was 20 years ago.

So for finding the current cost, we will find 250% of $100 .

First we need to make 250% as decimal form after dividing it by 100. So....

250% =

Now we will multiply this 2.50 with $100 for getting the current cost of the dinner.

Thus, the current cost

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.

where did you get them? if you picked from the grass, is is probably poisonous.
