Answer:

Angela, a proportion is two equal ratios, kinda like 3/4 = 6/8.

 

If we call the number of cars c, then our proportion is 3/10 = c/100.

 

Cross multiplying, we get 10c = 300.

 

Dividing both sides by 10, c = 30.

Ugo [173]
We can solve this by setting up a proportion:

12 seeing the play/ 72 students = 210 seeing the play/ x students

We can cross multiply to solve for x:

(12)x=(72)(210)
12x=15,120
x=1,260 students who attend the school

Which expression is the correct translation of the following word phrase?
Llana [10]
Hey, there! 

The parentheses would make it multiplication 
The word sum means add 
A number was unknown, so we will label it as "x" 

So, let's see what we're working with here! 

If you chose "Option A" the question would be "five multiplied by a number and the sum of 3" (that doesn't give you the right answer" 
For B. same thing with option A 
For "Option C" its not asking you "a number with sum of three times five" 

So, this leaves "Option D." as your answer because 3 is getting multiplied by the sum of some number and five

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
