A bouquet of flowers costs $17.95. If a customer has a coupon that allows him to save $3.75 on the price of the flowers, how much will he pay for the flowers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of the 600 people at a music festival, 420 had attended the previous year. How many people out of 100 had attended the previous year?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Correct Answer and Explanation is :<\/strong><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Answers & Explanation:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

1. Discounted Price of Flowers<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The original price of the bouquet is $17.95<\/strong>. The customer has a coupon that provides a discount of $3.75<\/strong>. To determine the final cost, we subtract the discount from the original price:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[
17.95 – 3.75 = 14.20
]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, after using the coupon, the customer will pay $14.20<\/strong> for the flowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Proportion of Returning Attendees<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We are given that out of 600<\/strong> people at a music festival, 420<\/strong> had attended the previous year. To find how many people out of 100<\/strong> had attended before, we set up a proportion:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[
\\frac{420}{600} = \\frac{x}{100}
]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solving for ( x ), we multiply:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[
x = \\left(\\frac{420}{600}\\right) \\times 100
]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[
x = 70
]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, 70 out of every 100<\/strong> people at the festival had attended the previous year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Explanation (300 words)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Discounted Price of Flowers<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

When calculating the final price after applying a discount, we use simple subtraction. The original bouquet cost is $17.95<\/strong>, and the discount is $3.75<\/strong>. By subtracting the discount, we get $14.20<\/strong>. This concept is widely used in shopping, where discounts and coupons reduce the amount a customer pays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Music Festival Attendance<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

In problems involving proportions, we use the concept of ratios. Here, 420<\/strong> out of 600<\/strong> people had attended before. To determine the number per 100<\/strong>, we convert this ratio into a fraction:
[
\\frac{420}{600}
]
By multiplying by 100, we adjust the ratio to a scale of 100. The result, 70 out of 100<\/strong>, shows that 70%<\/strong> of the attendees were returning visitors. This percentage helps understand attendance trends and predict future participation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These concepts\u2014percentage calculations and price reductions\u2014are essential in real-world applications like budgeting, marketing, and event planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
