Answer:
(12 2/3)/( 2 1/3)= 38/7 or 5 3/7 or 5.43 decimal
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
(12 + 2/3)/(2 + 1/3)
Put 2 + 1/3 over the common denominator 3. 2 + 1/3 = (3×2)/3 + 1/3:
(12 + 2/3)/((3×2)/3 + 1/3)
3×2 = 6:
(12 + 2/3)/(6/3 + 1/3)
6/3 + 1/3 = (6 + 1)/3:
(12 + 2/3)/((6 + 1)/3)
6 + 1 = 7:
(12 + 2/3)/(7/3)
Put 12 + 2/3 over the common denominator 3. 12 + 2/3 = (3×12)/3 + 2/3:
((3×12)/3 + 2/3)/(7/3)
3×12 = 36:
(36/3 + 2/3)/(7/3)
36/3 + 2/3 = (36 + 2)/3:
((36 + 2)/3)/(7/3)
36 + 2 = 38:
(38/3)/(7/3)
Multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator, (38/3)/(7/3) = 38/3×3/7:
(38×3)/(3×7)
(38×3)/(3×7) = 3/3×38/7 = 38/7:
Answer: 38/7
Their error is that they divided 12 by 30, instead of 30 by 12 in order to get the price per pair
the correct unit price is $2.50 per pair
2.5 * 12 = 30
Answer:
y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
6=2(y+2)
6=(2)(y)+(2)(2)(Distribute)
6=2y+4
Step 2: Flip the equation.
2y+4=6
Step 3: Subtract 4 from both sides.
2y+4−4=6−4
2y=2
Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.
2y/2 2/2
The total amount of people who ordered a large is 5 + 12 + 8 = 25 people.
The amount of customers who bought a large cold drink is 5.
The probability that someone bought a large cold drink is 5 out of 25 people.
This is 5/25 which is 1/5 which is .2
Convert the decimal to a fraction by multiplying by 100 and adding a percent sign at the end.
.2 x 100 = 20%
Edit:
The probability was supposed to be if the customer ordered a cold drink based on people who ordered large.
The amount of people who ordered a large drink is 22 + 5 = 27.
The amount of people who ordered a cold large is 5.
To find the percent, divide the people who ordered cold large by the total people who ordered large.
This would be 5/27 which in decimal form is .185185
To convert to a percent, multiply by 100 and add a percent sign after it.
.185185 x 100 = 18.5185%
The question says to round to the nearest percent so your answer is:
19%
