To find how much each person will get, you have to divide the amount available by the people. There are 2 ways I believe we can do this.
First way
Let's divide.
2÷9= 2/9

Each person would get 2/9 of a gallon if they shared it.

Second way
I believe it would be easier to convert this into cups. There are 16 cups per gallon.
16×2= 32
Let's divide that by 9.
32÷9= 3 5/9 cups per person.

Each person would receive 2/9 of a gallon.

Ahmad run 5 kilometres. If he completed 15% of the race. How many kilometres is the race?
stepladder [879]

Answer:

x = 33.33 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

you could make use of the percent, base, and rate formula here. we know that 15% is the rate, 5 kilometers is the percent, therefore what we are looking for is our base.

\frac{percent}{base} =\frac{rate}{100}

\frac{5}{x}=\frac{15}{100} ; cross multiply.

15x = 500

x = 33.33 kilometers

therefore, the race is 33.33 kilometers.

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Given

List Price=$720

The percentage of discount=13%

In order to find the amount of discount, 13% of the amount has to be calculated. To calculate 13% , the amount is multiplied by 13/100.
