A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. The number of people who don't have pets is 50 people.

<h3>What are Percentages?</h3>

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.

Given at the Red bridge School, 1/3 of pupils have a pet dog 2/5 have cat and 1/15 have a hamster.

A.) Number of people who don't have pets = 1 - 1/3 - 2/5 - 1/15

                                                                        = (15-5-6-1)/15

                                                                        = 3/15

                                                                        = 1/5

B.) Given there are 25 people at the school. Therefore, the number of people who don't have a pet is,

Number of people who don't have pets = (1/5) × 250 = 50

C.) The percentage increase of pupils at the Bluebell School that has no pets compared to the Red bridge School is,

Percentage increase = (23%-20%)/20% × 100% = 15%

Hence, the number of people who don't have pets is 50 people.

Ava is in charge of bringing bottled water to a party that has 42 guests.
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

a - about 3 packs cause you have to round up

b - $50.76

Step-by-step explanation:

First you divide 42 and 18.

42/18=2.33

You have to round up cause you can't have half of a pack, you can't just buy half of a pack.

So, it is rounded to 3 packs.

Next you have to multiply the number of packs and the cost of each pack of water bottles.

16.92*3=$50.76

a - you have to buy 3 packs

b - the total cost is $50.76
