Re: Y=(X+(X*50/100)

first of all, there is missing a paranthese:


500 = (X + ( 50X / 100))

X = 333.3333333333333333

Your parenthesis are unbalanced. Most interpretations I can give are
pretty trivial, so I don't know what you meant.



y = x + x/2 = x * (1+1/2) => (3/2)/y = x => y/x = (1+1/2)

.
