The equation will be 12a – 360 = 216. Then the value of the variable a will be 48.

<h3>What is the solution of the equation?</h3>

The solution of the equation means the value of the unknown or variable.

When you multiply a number by 12 and subtract the product from 360, the difference is 216.

Let the number be a.

Then we have the equation

12a – 360 = 216

By solving the equation, we have

12a = 216 + 360

12a = 576

a = 576/12

a = 48

48 inches to 30 inches is a decrease.
percent decrease = change/original value x 100%
= (48 - 30)/48 x 100%
= 18/48 x 100%
= 37.5% decrease

a class has 60 students.Given that 85% passed a science test. Find the number of students who failed and then convert o %

Vanyuwa [196]

Given:

Total students = 60

Student passed = 85%

To find:

The number of students who failed and then convert it in %.

Solution:

We have,

Number of passed student = 85% of Total students

= $\dfrac{85}{100}\times 60$

= $51$

So, number of passes students is 51.

Number of students who failed = Total students - Passes students

= $60-51$

= $9$

So, number of students who failed is 9.

$\text{Fail}\%=\dfrac{\text{Failed students}}{\text{Total students}}\times 100$

$\text{Fail}\%=\dfrac{9}{60}\times 100$

$\text{Fail}\%=15$

Therefore, 15% students fail in the test.
