Answer:
day 1:59% day 2:75% day 3:50% day 4:10%
Step-by-step explanation:
59% of 100=59-1=58 75% of 58=43.5-1=42.5 but can't have 0.5 so 42 50% of 42=21-1=20 10% of 20=2-1=1
The correct decreasing percentage order of bananas he keeps each day is
Day 1 :75%
Day 2: 59%
Day 3: 50%
Day 4: 10%
Descending order is defined as an arrangement in the highest to lowest format.
A percentage is a number that tells us how much out of 100 and can also be written as a decimal or a fraction .To change the percentage to a fraction, just put the percentage number in the numerator and 100 in the denominator.
According to the given question.
Total number of bananas the monkey have = 100
Since, the monkey everyday eats some bananas and it gives some away, so the rest bananas is decreasing day by day, the bananas it keeps is decreasing day by day as well.
And the number of bananas must be integer, so we choose 59% at first.
So, the number of bananas left at
Day1: [tex]100 \times 59\% -1 = 100\times\frac{59}{100} -1 = 59 -1 = 58[/tex]
Day2: [tex]58 \times 50\%-1 = 58 \times \frac{50}{100} -1 = 28[/tex]
Day3: [tex]28\times 75\% - 1 = 28\times \frac{75}{100} -1 = 20[/tex]
Day4: [tex]20\times 10\%-1 = 1[/tex]
Therefore, the correct decreasing percentage order of bananas he keeps each day is
Day 1 :75%
Day 2: 59%
Day 3: 50%
Day 4: 10%
