To find a percent of a number, multiply the percent by the number.
First we find the number of pennies.
40% of 220 =
= 40% * 220
= 0.4 * 220
= 88
88 coins are pennies.
220 - 88 = 132
132 coins are not pennies.
Now we find 25% of 132.
25% of 132 =
= 25% * 132
= 0.25 * 132
= 33
33 coins are partners.
(Did you mean quarters instead of partners?)
Answer:
9sqrt(3) in.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the lengths of the sides of a 30-60-90 triangle is:
short leg : long leg : hypotenuse
1 : sqrt(3) : 2
If the short leg measures 1, then the hypotenuse measures 2.
The length of the hypotenuse is twice the length of the short leg.
The length of the long leg is sqrt(3) times the length of the short leg.
If the hypotenuse measures 18 in., then the short leg measures 9 in.
Then the long leg measures 9sqrt(3) in.
