35% of 120 is 42. (42/32 then multiply that by 100)
92% of 125 is 115. (115/92 then multiply that by 100)
Box = b
Parrots = p
b/p = number of days it can support the parrots
Half a dozen = 6 (A dozen is 12)
1/6 = 15
To work out the percentage of '6' '5' is, use the equation
(5/6)*100 = 83.333....
Meaning that with one less bird, the box will support the birds for 16.666... (100 - 18.333...) longer
(15/100)*116.666... = 17.4999....
The box will sustain the parrots for 17.5 days

Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the complete question:
A museum requires a minimum number of chaperones proportional to the number of students on a field trip. The museum requires a minimum of 3 chaperones for a field trip with 24 students. Which of the following could be combinations of values for the students and the minimum number of chaperones the museum requires? Choose 2 answers.
A. Students: 72
Minimum of chaperones: 9
B. Students: 16
Minimum of chaperones: 2
C. Students: 60
Minimum of chaperones: 6
D. Students: 45
Minimum of chaperones: 5
E. Students: 40
Minimum of chaperones: 8
Since the museum requires a minimum of 3 chaperones for a field trip with 24 students. This means that there will be 24/3 = 8 students per chaperone.
We then divide the number of students given in the question by the number of chaperone to know our answers. This. Will be:
Students: 72
Minimum of chaperones: 9
This will be: 72/9 = 8
Therefore, this is correct.
B. Students: 16
Minimum of chaperones: 2
This will be: 16/2 = 8
This is correct
C. Students: 60
Minimum of chaperones: 6
This will be: = 60/6 = 10.
Therefore, this is wrong
D. Students: 45
Minimum of chaperones: 5
This will be 45/5 = 9
Therefore, this is wrong.
E. Students: 40
Minimum of chaperones: 8
This will be: 40/5 = 8.
Therefore, this is wrong.
Therefore, options A and B are correct.
Before we do any solving, we need to simplify both sides.
On the left, we can simplify -2x + 3x - 5 to x - 5.
On the right, we can simplify 6 - 21 to -16.
So we have x - 5 = -16.
Solving from here, we add 5 to both sides to get x = -11.
I believe this is called scaling. This is the word that I am associating with your definition, as well as what many internet sources say. I am not 100% sure, but I think this is correct. Hope this helps.
