75% of an unknown number of people is 480 people.
We translate this sentence into an equation and we solve the equation.
Let x = number of people who were surveyed.

75% of x = 480

75% * x = 480

0.75x = 480

x is being multiplied by 0.75. We want x alone, so we divide 0.75x by 0.75 to get x alone. Since we must do the same to both sides of an equation, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.75.

\dfrac{0.75x}{0.75} = \dfrac{480}{0.75}

x = 640

Answer: 640 people were surveyed.

Answer:

 640 people

Explanation:

480 people = 75 %
x people = 100%

480 : x = 75 : 100
75 x = 48,000
x = 48,000 : 75
x = 640

Felix earns $450 per week plus 3% of sales over $4800. Felix’s sales are $53000. How much does Felix earn?Felix earns $450 per w
kirill [66]

Answer:

<em>Felix earns total $594 per week.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Felix’s sales are $53000.

So, <u>the amount of sales over $4800 will be</u>:  \$53000-\$4800= \$48200

Felix earns $450 per week and additional 3% of sales over $4800.

So, his additional income = (\$4800\times 0.03)=\$144

Thus, Felix's total income will be:  (\$450+\$144)=\$594

Sarahs craft project uses peices of yarn that are 1/8 yard long.She has a peice of yarn that is 3 yards ling.How many 1/8 yard p
motikmotik
Pieces of yarn .... 1/8 yard long (each)
a piece of yarn ... n = 3 yards long
remaining ... 1 1/4 yards = 5/4 yards

If you would like to calculate how many 1/8 yard pieces can Sarah cut and still have 1 1/4 yards left, you can do this using the following steps:

n - 1 1/4 = <span>3 - 1 1/4 </span>= 3 - 5/4 = 12/4 - 5/4 = 7/4 = 1 3/4 yards

7/4 / 1/8 = 7/4 * 8/1 = 14 pieces

Result: Sarah can cut 14 1/8 yard pieces and still have 1 1/4 yards left.
