Answer:

2/3 is the fraction of students who are boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, a fraction consists of two parts: The denominator and the numerator. The denominator is the whole, while the number is a part of the whole (and sometimes above).

1. Since in your question, there are 24 students in total in the class, the denominator will be 24.

2. You said that 16 of them are boys, so 16 is the numerator.

3. In a fraction, it will be 16/24.

4. 16/24 can be simplified into 2/3 since both 16 and 24 can be divided by 8.

So our final answer is 2/3.

In a survey of 400 seniors, x percent said that they plan on majoring in physics. One university has used this data to estimate
azamat

Answer:

2 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use two separate fractions, one representing the amount of physics majors expected and the amount of seniors expected in physics majors by the university.

\frac{400x}{66} = \frac{400}{3600}

Now cross multiply.

\frac{66*400}{400x * 3600}

x will be removed.

\frac{26400}{1320000}

Simplifying this fraction will get you \frac{1}{50}, which in percentage form, will be 2 percent.

Consider this algebraic expression:     –3x + x + 5 Use the algebra tiles to model the expression.
luda_lava [24]

For this case, we have the following expression:

-3x + x + 5

We simplify the expression:

If we add similar terms, taking into account that different signs are subtracted and the sign of the greater one is placed, we have that -3x + x = -2x

So, we have to:

-3x + x + 5 = -2x + 5

Answer:

-3x + x + 5 = -2x + 5

If you draw a net for a cylinder, such as a soup can, how many two-dimensional geometric shapes would this net have?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

3.

If you were to “unroll” a can of soup, you would end up with two circles and one rectangle.

Thats why when you are finding the surface area of a cylinder, you need to multiply the area of the circle by 2. And also you need to find the area of the rectangle. Then you add the areas all up.

please mark me brainlies :)
