The answer is 329. If you set this up as a proportion you get 28/40=x/470 then you cross multiply 28x470 to get 13,160 and decide it by 40 to get 329

So from that i think the formula would be
\frac{x}{470}  =  \frac{28}{40}
so then you find "x" by multiplying 470 x 28 which equals 13,160. Then you divide 13,160 by 40 which equals 329.
X=329
329 students are likely to have phones

Retha Davidson works for a word processing center keying straight copy.
Nataliya [291]

Using proportions, it is found that:

  • In an 8-hour day, she keys 48 pages.
  • For a day, her gross earnings are of $72.
  • For a week, her gross earnings are of 72 x 7 = $504.

<h3>Proportions:</h3>

This question is solved using the proportions given, which are:

  • Payment of $1.50 per page of 30 lines.
  • Retha keys 6 pages per hour.

Hence, in an 8-hour day, she keys 6 x 8 = 48 pages.

Since she earns $1.50 per page, for a day, her gross earnings are of 48 x 1.5 = $72.

Considering a week has 7 days, for a week, her gross earnings are of 72 x 7 = $504.
