Answer:

a) 25% are bad

b) 75% are good

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 300 oranges total and that 75 are bad. That means that the rest are good (implied).

300 - 75 = 225 good oranges.

So to find the percentage we have to take the selected amount divided by the total amount.

Bad Apples: Good Apples:

75 / 300 = 0.25 225/300 = 0.75

However, that's a decimal or a number out of 1, we need a percent or a number out of 100. So we have to multiply both numbers by 100.

Bad Apples = 25%

Good Apples = 75%

Which number is greater and by how much? a decreased by 50% and then increased by 50% of the result

zaharov [31]

Answer:

Let's assume the number is 100 now it is increased by 50% that means

100+ (50/100)*100

100+50=150

Now it is decreased by 25% that means

150- (25/100)*150

150–37.5=112.5

Total percentage increase ={(112.5–100)/100}*100

=12.5%

These two trapezoids are similar What is the correct way to complete the similarity statement?

pentagon [3]

Option A:

$\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{GFHE}$

Solution:

ABCD and EGFH are two trapezoids.

To determine the correct way to tell the two trapezoids are similar.

Option A: $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{GFHE}$

AB = GF (side)

BC = FH (side)

CD = HE (side)

DA = EG (side)

So, $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{GFHE}$ is the correct way to complete the statement.

Option B: $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{EGFH}$

In the given image length of AB ≠ EG.

So, $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{EGFH}$ is the not the correct way to complete the statement.

Option C: $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{FHEG}$

In the given image length of AB ≠ FH.

So, $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{FHEG}$ is the not the correct way to complete the statement.

Option D: $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{HEGF}$

In the given image length of AB ≠ HE.

So, $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{HEGF}$ is the not the correct way to complete the statement.

Hence, $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{GFHE}$ is the correct way to complete the statement.
