Answer:
348 out of 725
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a ratio question, giving us a sample that we can use to extend the number to all students.
12/25 students play a sport so we want the value of x in x/725
So:
12/25 = x/725
Cross-Multiply:
25x = 8700
Divide by 25 to get x:
348
You can also check by dividing these ratios to see if you get the same number. In this case, you do (.48).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4/5 is less than 1, so multiplying 5/8 by 4/5 results in a product smaller than the two factors.
? Ummm What is the question???
We have to start by creating an equation.
Cost of System = x
Cost of games = 3x
Thus x + 3x = $500
Now we find x.
4x = 500,
x = 500/4 = 125
So the system is 125,
The games, 125*3 = 375
