Based on her results, if she flipped the coins another 50 times, she should expect to flip heads 20 times. If Jessica flips a coin 100 times and gets 40 times heads and the next time she flips a coin 50 times she should get 20 because, 100 divide 2 is 50 so you would have to divide 40 with 2 and get the answer of 20.
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
the question translates to asking how many times does 7/8 fit in 21, so 21 divided by 7/8.
when we divide by a fraction, we can multiply by it's inverse, so 21 divided by 7/8, is 21 multiplied by 8/7. so:
21×8/7 = (21×8)/7 = (21/7)×8 = 3×8 = 24
So, I didn't quite understand your question clearly, but I'll try my best to answer it.
So, the first question is quite simple: Did the runner have a % decrease in his time or an increase.
Well, 7:45 is minor than 5:51. So, his time decreased.
2nd question:
The percent of change. Well, first things first 7:45 has 2 different units, wich are minutes and seconds, I suppose. Same goes for 5:51.
So let's put everything in seconds. multiply both the 7 and 5 for 60(for every minute has 60 seconds.)
That means:
7*60= 420+45 = 465.
5*60=300+51=351.
Now, let's do the math itself:
465 -> 100%
351 -> x%
Is equal to about 75,5%
How much did it decrease then?
(75,5-100)%= 24,5%, approximately
Answer:
the answer is 9:25 ............
