Task Instructions
You are required to answer each topic, providing clear and concise answers. Where requ
ired, supply examples showing use of the said topics in real world problems. You should also provide answers to the examples you write below. The suggested word count for this section is 500 words.
    Choose any number between 30 and 100. Can you create at least two different number sentences that equal to this number? (for example :
You must use at least three separate operations.
    A:
1) 25 + (10*2) = 45
2) Sqrt(625) + 10+ 2*5 = 45
3) 5*10 – (35/7) = 45
    Choose any two fractions with different denominators (e.g .Which one is larger? Show your calculations, do not convert them as decimals or percentages.
    A: 4/8 and 7/5 are two fractions selected for this study. Considering the denominators of both the fractions 4/8 and 7/5, they are different and hence to equate them to common denominator, it is required to make it for LCM.
The LCM for 8 and 5 is 40 and hence the two fractions can rewritten as,
20/40, 56/40.
Now both of them are at common denominator of 40 and hence the comparison is much easier and the second fraction is the larger of the two. As 56>20.
    Convert both fractions you have used above into decimal and percentages.
    A:
4/8 = 0.5, it is same as 50%
7/5 = 1.4, it is same as 140%
    Provide one real life example for each of the following
>Percentage increase
>Percentage decrease
Show step by step calculations for each of your examples(questions)
    A:
1) Considering the age spent of a human being when counted as percentage of average age 80 years, will increase with time. At 20 years his percentage of age spent is 25% and when he is at 40 years the age spent is 50%. So with time the age spent will increase in percentages.
2) Considering the value of machinery, year after year due to depreciation the total cost of the machinery will fall. For example if the value of a commodity (machinery) is one lakh ($100,000) at the start of operations, the value of the machinery will fall down by 20% as per the depreciation per each year.
After first year the value of the machinery will be $80,000.
(80% of the initial value)
After the second year, the value of the machinery will be $60,000
(40% of the initial value)
    Give one real- world example(question) of reverse percentages and show your calculations to find the answer?
    A: Suppose a person got 40% of total marks and entitled for just pass grade of E.
In such case the total marks of the course is 100 marks and the actual marks obtained by the person is 40% of the total 100 marks = 40 marks.]
    Give one real- world examples each (question) of Direct and Indirect Proportions and show your calculations to find the answer?
    A: The amount of interest one need to pay on principal amount is directly proportional to...
