To find out what a percentage written as a fraction would look like, you first need to convert it into a decimal.
To convert a percentage to a decimal, you either need to divide the percentage by 100, or (my personal shortcut) just move the decimal point over two places to the left.

250% = 2.5

The decimal .5 is equivalent to 1/2, since 50 is half of 100.

250% written as a fraction (well, a mixed number, really) is 2 1/2.
Hope that helped =)

tia_tia [17]

Answer: Jerome has left 56 cards.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of packs of baseball cards at a garage sale = 8

Number of cards in each pack = 10

Total number of cards in all is given by

8\times 10=80

Now,

He gave his younger sister 3 cards from each pack ,

So,

Number of cards he gave to his younger sister from each pack = 3

Number of packs were there = 8

So,

Total number of cards he has given to his younger sister is given by

3\times 8=24

So, number of cards left to Jerome is given by

80-24=56

So, there are 56 cards Jerome left with .

a car salesman purchased a car at an auction for $8,550. he will re-sell the car at a markup of $11,970. what is the percent inc
nlexa [21]

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

You subtract 11,970-8,550 = 3,420 to isolate the increase.

Divide 3,420/8,550 = .4 to get the percent increase of the markup.

The answer is .4 or 40% (they are equivalent)

You can check my work by multiplying 8,550 * .4 = 3,420

This answer is the percent of 8,550 that it increased (40% of 8,550) so make sure that is what the question is asking. If it is then it's your answer.

gladu [14]

Answer: Circumference of Earth= 25120 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The circumference of a circle can be found using the formula C = \pi d, where d= diameter of the circle.

Earth's diameter = 8000 miles (approx)

The circumference of circle = 3.14\times 8000  [substitute values in formula]

The circumference of circle = 25120 miles (approx)

Hence,  the circumference of Earth= 25120 miles (approx)

Which would be appropriate compatible numbers to use to estimate (19 4/5) (4/6) A. 16(1/3) B. 19(2/3) C. 20(1/2) D. 20(1)
podryga [215]

Answer:

C. 20(1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the value of the expression before looking for the nearest estimate

(19 4/5) (4/6) = 19 *(4/5)(4/6)

(19 4/5) (4/6) = 19(16/30)

(19 4/5) (4/6) = 19(8/15)

(19 4/5) (4/6) = (19*8)/15

(19 4/5) (4/6) = 152/15

(19 4/5) (4/6) = 10(2/15)

A. 16(1/3) =5.33

B. 19(2/3) = 12.667

C. 20(1/2) = 10

D. 20(1)= 20

The nearest to the expression is C. 20(1/2)
