If 12 1/2% of a sum of money is $40, what is the TOTAL sum of money?

$320

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total sum of money be $x.

Therefore,

12 1/2% of x = 40

25/2% * x = 40

0.125 * x= 40

x = 40/0.125

x = $320

Thus, total sum of money is $320.

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice
