Acompany has decreased the weight of its boxes of macaroni by 8 %. if the new weight of the box is 15.1 ounces, what was the original weight of the box?

Old weight is equall to 16.413 ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

New weight = 15.1 ounce

Old weight = x ounce

(Old weight) -8% of old weight= new weight

X*0.92= 15.1

X= 15.1/0.92

X = 16.413

Old weight is equall to 16.413 ounce
