I would say the parakeets make up 14% of the shelter.
52) 115-3=112 that were given away
Now divide 112 by each, seeing if they give you a non mixed number.
The only one that would give you a full number would be 28. So there are 28 kids in his class.
54) 19-4=15
Now double 15 since he sold half, so he started with 30 stamps originally.
56) 500-2*=324
-2*=-176
age=88
Answer:
6840
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the order matters (1st, 2nd, and 3rd), so we need to use permutations.
There are 20 people who can get in first place. After that, there are 19 people who can get in second place. Finally, there are 18 people who can get in third place. So:
20 * 19 * 18 = 6840
Step 1: We make the assumption that 498 is 100% since it is our output value.
Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with $x$x.
Step 3: From step 1, it follows that $100\%=498$100%=498.
Step 4: In the same vein, $x\%=4$x%=4.
Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:
$100\%=498(1)$100%=498(1).
$x\%=4(2)$x%=4(2).
Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS
(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have
$\frac{100\%}{x\%}=\frac{498}{4}$
100%
x%=
498
4
Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields
$\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{4}{498}$
x%
100%=
4
498
$\Rightarrow x=0.8\%$⇒x=0.8%
Therefore, $4$4 is $0.8\%$0.8% of $498$498.
