I did 2/27 which equals 0.074
So its basically 74
So to make it a percentage we need to move it 2 spaces=
7.4%

Question
What is the approximate circumference of a circle with a radius of 42.1 km? A. 5565.4 km B. 1391.3 km C. 264.4 km D. 132.2 km
Solution 1
C.264.4 that should answer your question

Solution 2
Circumference of circle = 2*pi*r
                                     = 2*22/7*42.1
                                     = 264.4 km

Therefore, the circumference of the circle is 264.4 km

Question
Claire’s mother is 4 years more than twice Claire’s age. The sum of their ages is 58 years. 
Solution 1
Claire's age = x

claire's mothers age = 2x+4 ( 4 more than twice claire's age)

sum is addition

x + 2x+4 = 58

add like terms ( x +2x = 3x)

3x +4 = 58

subtract 4 from each side:

3x = 54

divide both sides by 3
x = 54 /3
x = 18

Claire is 18 years old
 Claire's mother is  2*18 = 36 +4 = 40 years old


Solution 2
Let x = Claire's age
Claire’s mother is 4 years more than twice Claire’s age = 2x + 4
The sum of their ages is 58 years:
x + 2x + 4 = 58
3x + 4 = 58
3x = 54
x = 18

Claire's age = 18
Claire’s mother = 2(18)+4 = 36 + 4 = 40
Question
What two prime numbers equal 85 when added together?
Solution 1

I started out trying to subtract a prime number from 85, and then
see whether I had a prime number remaining.  I did this several
times, before I slapped myself upside the head.

-- 85 is an odd number. 

-- To get an odd-number for a sum, you have to add one odd number
to one even number ... there's no other way.

-- So one of the prime numbers we're looking for must be
     an even number.

-- The ONLY even number that's a prime number is ' 2 '.
     So it must be one of them.

-- Subtract 2 from 85, and you have 83 left.
     Is 83 a prime number ?  Yes. 

-- So the two numbers are  2  and  83.

If 83 were not a prime number, this wouldn't work, and I would have said
"There is no such pair of numbers.".  That means it doesn't necessarily work
for every odd number.

Examples:

75  ===>  2 and 73 . \
55  ===>  2 and 53 .  \
45  ===>  2 and 43 .   \
                                     Both primes.  It works.

65  ===>  2 and 63 .  63 is not a prime. \
35  ===>  2 and 33 .  33 in not a prime.  \
                                                                   It doesn't work.

Question
A flagpole casts a showdown 15 feet long the 6 foot tall man casts a shadow 4 feet long how tall is the flag pole
Solution 1
Set it up as a ratio:
mans shadow over mans height (4/6 ) equals flag pole shadow over flag pole height (15/x)

set them to equal each other:

4/6 = 15/x

cross multiply: 4*x =4x, 15*6 = 90

so you have 4x = 90

now divide both sides by 5 to solve for x, which is the height of the flag pole:

x = 90 / 4 = 22.5 feet tall
Question
she brought the cameras for $65 each and included a 60% markup to get the selling price ,what was the selling price for one camera?
Solution 1
60% of 65=
0.6*65=36
add it into a sum with 65
39+65= 104

This means each camera is worth $104

Hope I helped 
Solution 2
39 I think
how many cameras did she buy?
opps I forgot to add 39 to 65 for a total of 104
SORRY
