Let's set up an equation.
so we know the answer is -13.
1/3 of a number (our variable) can be written as 1/3n.
8 less than that would be subtracting 1/3n by 8
so we have -13 = 1/3n - 8.
To solve:
Add 8 to both sides: -5 = 1/3n
Multiply both sides by 3 (to cancel fraction): -15 = n
You can check by plugging -15 into the equation we made.
Answer: 210
<em>Step-by-step explanation: 70+70+70=210 and 40% for 210 students would add up to 120% of all students surveyed. Look if there is 70 students that's been surveyed that is 40% add 40% 3 times(40%+40%+40%)=120% of all students surveyed </em>

7 and 9
7^2=49
9^2=81
49+81=130
0.6.
5/9 = 0.5555555... which rounds to 0.6
