There are 8 rows of chairs in the auditorium. Three of the rows are empty. What fraction of the rows are empty?

1 answer:

6 0

3 rows out of a total of 8 being empty means a fraction of 3/8 are empty.

This is because the denominator is the total. The total in this case is 8 rows.
The numerator is the number of these rows that are empty. In this case, this is 3 rows.

So the answer is 3/8 of the rows are empty.

Four individuals pool money together to start a new business and agree to split the profits equally. N invests $6,000, X invests

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

15,000$

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the information given, profits are divided equally into 4 parts

Since the total profit for the first month is 100,000$ each party will receive a sum of 25,000$. This means that Y also receives the same amount

Now if the profits were divided in proportion to the investments made we first find the proportion on investment made by Y.

The total investment made is 6000$ + 2000$ + 8000$ + 4000$ = 20,000$. Out of this, the amount invested by Y is 8000$

finding the proportional profit of Y

$\frac{8000}{20000} (100000)$

=40,000$

So Y receives 40,000 - 25,000 = 15,000 less
