Morris has saved $95 toward the purchase of a new computer printer. The $95 is 50% of the price. What is the price of the printer?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$190

Step-by-step explanation:

50% = 0.5 = 1/2

Since 95 is only one-half the cost, multiply by 2 to find the actual cost.

95 * 2 = 190

Answer:

$190

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to do it is

$95 x 2 = 190

We can do this because 50 is half of 100

Another way we can do it is

95/x = 50/100

x50 = 95 x 100

x50/50 = 9500/50

x = 190
