Using proportions, it is found that they must win 19 of their next 30 games.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

We want a win-to-loss proportion of 2:1, which is equivalent to a win-to-total proportion of 2:3. We have that:

  • The team will have won 5 + x games.
  • The team will have played 36 games.

Hence:

\frac{5 + x}{36} = \frac{2}{3}

3(5 + x) = 72

15 + 3x = 72

3x = 57

x = 19.

The Rangers must win 19 of their next 30 games.

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

9.09%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find percent decrease you have to use this equation:

Percent Decrease = \frac{Initial -New}{Initial} x 100

Initial = 49.5

New = 45

Plug in and solve:

PD = \frac{49.5-45}{49.5} x 100\\\\PD = \frac{4.5}{49.5} x 100 \\\\PD = 0.0909 x 100\\\\PD = 9.09

The percent decrease is 9.09%

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

\frac{3}{5}

In the fifth grade class, \frac{4}{5} of the girls have brown hair. Again among those of the brown-haired girls, \frac{3}{4} of them have long hair.

We are asked to find the fraction of the girls who have long brown hair in the class.

The fraction of the total students which have long brown hair will be (\frac{4}{5} \times \frac{3}{4}) = \frac{3}{5} . (Answer)
