40 out of 250 students speak French: 40 / 250 = 0.16
Multiply the number of students surveyed by 0.16:
30 x 0.16 = 4.8
Round up to 5 students.
Answer 5 students
the Great Common factor can either be 3 or x.
You are cutting wood into equally sized pieces so if you know the length of the wood and the size of the cuts...
That would be...
2/3 ÷ 2/15 = 2/3 x 15/2 = 5 pieces
<h3>Answer: 395 birds</h3>
==============================================
Work Shown:
The formula to use is
A = P*(1+r)^x
where,
P = 12000 is the initial population
r = -0.15 represents the growth rate in decimal form; which is really a decay/decrease due to r being negative
x = 21 days have passed by (3 weeks = 3*7 = 21 days)
These values lead to...
A = P*(1+r)^x
A = 12000*(1+(-0.15))^21
A = 12000*(1-0.15)^21
A = 12000*(0.85)^21
A = 12000*0.03294560142183
A = 395.34721706196
A = 395
