How do i reverse this formula? |
2013-04-20 |
|
From MK:
I have 22,000,000 worth of gold and wants to want to resell the gold back with a profit.
Each transaction of gold will have a transaction fee of 15%, so if i resell the gold back at 22,000,000, I will only get back 18,700,000 after 15% transaction cut.
The current formula is X-15%X = Y where X = 22,000,000 and Y = 18,700,000
Will u be able to come up with a new formula if we don't know the value of X but we know the value of Y
Something like this X-15%X = 22,000,000.
How do i reverse this formula to find the value of X
Thanks

A reverse PST calculation |
2010-09-23 |
|
From Manning:
Hi, I'm a manufacturing contractor in Saskatoon. The way to calculate PST for us is using total contract amount x 70% then 5%.
For example, contract amount of $100 x 70% x 5% = $3.5 (PST). The subtotal is using contract amount + PST.
$100 + $3.50 = $103.50.
If you only know the subtotal is $103.50 including PST, how do you reverse calculation to get the contract amount?
Thank you very much for your help.

From carole:
I work at a company where we use transport companies and we often get credits
on their invoices. I need to know how to subtract the sales taxes from these credit amounts.
(5% TPS and 7.5% TVQ).
Is the equation: Amount / 1.05 = then this amount / by 1.075=?

Reverse percentage |
2006-04-19 |
|
From Mike:
How would I calculate a reverse percentage?
Let me give you an example. I have two values that calculate to a success rate of 93.32. Total=1546051 Failures=103302. (1546051-103302)/1546051=93.32% success.
Now how much would I need to increase the total value to get the success up to 95%?
