B = A - (C/100)

I might be completly wrong. but I'm guessing:

(a+c)x100
------------ = B
2

I don't know, and, after but a moment's reflection, I
decided I didn't want to.

If you had the outcome then it'd be easier.

[(A-B)/B] * 100 = C

(A-B) * 100B = BC

A - B = BC/100B

A - B = C/100

B = A - (C/100)

dont you have to turn the first half into (A/B - B/B) x 100
?

I bet you need to use a reciprocal. God I love reciprocals.
Someone use a reciprocal.

(A-B)x100=BC
A-B=BC/100
A=B+(BC/100)=B[(C/100) +1]

A
B= ___________
(C/100)+1

[ (A-B)/B ] x 100 = C

[ A/B - B/B ] x 100 = C

[ A/B - 1 ] x 100 = C

(100A)/B - 100 = C

(100A)/B = C + 100

100A = (C + 100) x B

(100A) / (C + 100) = B

i think dozer has made more progress. Even though his post
messed up at the end.

(100A) / (C + 100) = B

Dozier

A / (C/100 + 1) = B

who is right?

ok this is how I did it:

A-B
---- x 100 =C
B

A+C
----- x 100 = B
B

A+C x 100 = B x B

A+C x 100 = 2 x B

A+C
----- x 100 = B
2

or is it

[(A+C) x 100] -2 = B

where have I gone wrong?

this seems simple yet i wouldn't know how to solve it ... :

i've never been good at math, and it's been years since i
last solved an equation. math is something so easily
forgettable.



(i wonder whether this topic would make a math teacher sad
or make him laugh...)

I found a mistake

A-B
---- x 100 =C
B

A-C
----- x 100 = B
B

A-C x 100 = B x B

A-C x 100 = 2 x B

A-C
----- x 100 = B
2

or is it

[(A-C) x 100] -2 = B
