In the fairest school 70% are below 16 years old
1/3 are teachers which is equals to = 21
Let’s start solving:
=> 1/3 of 100%
=> 100 / 3 = 33.33%
thus 33.33% = 21
=> 21 x 3 = 63, is the total number of people in the school.
Let’s try solving the number of people below 16 years old
Have you notice that you are asking for a 70% of students but there are already 33.33% of teacher. Thus your given problem is not right already.
=> 100% - 33.33% = 66.67% that’s the only remaining percentage and not 70%
=> 63 * .6667 = 42.0021
Thus, there are around 42 people who are 16 years old younger.

I need the sign between the (2/5)x and the 9
Answer:
11 of 20p, 22 of 10p and 33 of 5p
Step-by-step explanation:
Eva has 20p, 10p and 5p coins, total of £6.05 = 605p
Let 20p=x, 10p=y, 5p=z
<u>Then</u>:
- 20x + 10y + 5z = 605
- y : x = 2 : 1 ⇒ x= y/2
- y : z = 2 : 3 ⇒ z= 3y/2
<u>Rewriting the first equation considering next two:</u>
- 10y + 10y + 7.5y = 605
- 27.5y = 605
- y= 605/27.5
- y= 22
- x= y/2 = 22/2 = 11
- z = 3y/2 = 3*11 = 33
<u>Answer:</u> 11 of 20p coins, 22 of 10p coins and 33 of 5p coins
Let us assume last year the price of the item = $x.
After increase in price by 15% the new price = x + 15% of x = x+ 0.15x = 1.15x.
There is a 25% discount for employee.
25% of 1.15x = 0.25 × 1.15x = 0.2875 x.
Price after discount = 1.15x - 0.2875 x = 0.8625x.
The employee pays $172.50.
Therefore,
0.8625x = 172.50.
Dividing both sides by 0.08625.
<h3>x=200.</h3><h3>Therefore, last year the price was $200.</h3>
