Do you know how to start?

OpenStudy (jennyrlz):

.05 = 5%

OpenStudy (jennyrlz):

so to get your answer you: .05 x 800

Mehek (mehek14):

i think instead of multiplying 800 * 0.05 you multiplied it by 0.5 which gives you half and that's wrong 800 x 0.05 = 40 not 400

OpenStudy (jennyrlz):

you want a tip for the future?

OpenStudy (jennyrlz):

in your head you can times that by .1 or 10%

OpenStudy (jennyrlz):

10% of 800 is 80

OpenStudy (bohotness):

okay

OpenStudy (jennyrlz):

then ust devide that by 2 ^.^

OpenStudy (jennyrlz):

devide

OpenStudy (jennyrlz):

i feel like i spelt that wrong :/

OpenStudy (jennyrlz):

@Mehek14 are you good at pre calc?

OpenStudy (bohotness):

OKAY

OpenStudy (bohotness):

400

Mehek (mehek14):

no not 400

Mehek (mehek14):

if it was 50% of 800 then 400 but they're asking you for 5% of 800 you just multiply 0.05 x 800 = 40

OpenStudy (bohotness):

okay
