If you picked 8% of the apples on a tree, and you picked 56 apples, how many apples did the tree contain before you starting picking?

56 / 8% = 700.

You started with 700 apples

700 apples before picking

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = apples on the tree

You picked 8%.  You picked 56 apples

a* 8% = 56

Changing to decimal form

a * .08 = 56

Divide each side by .08

a*.08/.08 = 56/.08

a =700

idk the answer but just put a

step-by-step explanation:

i think it's ф or x=6,-6

step-by-step explanation:

-x^2=-36

x^2=-36

ф

or

if you mean by : -(x^2)=-36

it'll be: x^2=36

x=6,x=-6

hope it'll ! have a good day!

you for asking!
