The part (aka "is") = 8 and the percent is 42, what is the whole (aka "of")? Round your answer to the nearest whole number

33

Step-by-step explanation:

If you simplify what the question is saying, it's basically..

8 is 24% of what number?

To find out, you can simply set up an equation.

((24% = 0.24 as a decimal (move the decimal point two times to the left))

8 = 0.24 x N (N is just the 'whole')

To solve, you just need to divide 8 ÷ 0.24. So, N = 33.333 repeating.

The question says to round to the nearest whole number, so the answer would just be 33.

costs the what? what is the cost of the pants?

step-by-step explanation:

if it is $10, then the price is 14.

take 40% of the cost, and then add the cost.

40% of 10 = 4

4+10 = 14.
