Shane returned from a trip to las vegas with $420 , which was75% more money than he had at the beginning of the trip. how much money did shane have at the beginning of his trip?

Shane had $240 at the beginning of his trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

Shane returned from a trip to Las Vegas with $420 and this is 75% more of at the beginning.

Let us assume the money he carried at the beginning of the trip was $x

At present he is having 75% more means total money he has = x+75% of x

This total amount is equal to $420

Therefore x + .75x = 420

x(1 +.75) =420

1.75 x = 420

Now by dividing both sides by 1.75

x = 420÷1.75

   = $240

Therefore the amount he carried in the beginning of the trip is $240.

hey there!

12 is twice as much as 6 because 6 goes into 12 2 times.

since the rabbit is twice as tall, we should multiply the weight of the first rabbit, 0.25, by 2.

0.25 x 2 = 0.5

therefore, the 12 inch chocolate rabbit weighs 0.5 lb, or half a pound.

hope this !
