a. 2/3 cup
b. 3/8 cup

The price of a Bluetooth speaker was $120. During the first week of January, its price rose by 20%, and then a week after it rose again by another $24. What is the total percentage increase in price for this speaker? a. 50% b. 40% c. 35% d. 45%
e. 25% - Answer- b. 40% 10%=12, So 20% is (12×2)=24. Adding $24, we arrive at 120+24+24=$168.
Now, how do we calculate the total percentage increase without the use of a calculator?
We need to subtract 120 from 168, which is 48. This is the total amount of money that reflects the price increase. We need to find how much 48 is out of 120. Since we've already calculated what 10% of 120 is (12), we can slowly add units of 12 until we get to
48. Luckily, we need 4 units of 12, which is 4 units of 10% = 40%!
Another way is to write a fraction (48/120) and to start reducing it / dividing it by common divisors.
Choose a pair that is analogous to Temperature: Flame
a. tornado: storm
b. freeze: cold c. sea level: tide d. wind: velocity
e. tropical: warm - Answer- c. sea level: tide Temperature: Flame - we can describe the relationship backwards as Flame is associated with high temperatures
Similarly, tide is associated with higher sea levels.
Note that Sea level: Tide is the only pair that not only describes the same relationship but is also written in the same order as Temperature: Flame.

D. 115
E. 165 - Answer- 30% of 50 equals 15% of 100, so 15. By adding up the 50 children on Monday and 50-15 children on Tuesday, we get a total of 115 children

C. $58
D. $60
E. $64 - Answer- 4 kilos bought without the discount equal $20. A 20% reduction on this
