Anestetic [448]

Answer:

1,600 dentists were surveyed in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion for this problem:

$\frac{27}{40} = \frac{1080}{x}\\\\\\$

Now we can cross multiply:

$27*x = 1080*40\\\\27x = 43,200\\\\27x/27 = 43,200/27\\\\x = 1,600$

1,600 dentists were surveyed in total.

There are 125 students in sixth grade. 2/3 of the sixth graders ride the bus. How many sixth graders ride the bus?

Luden [163]

125 ÷ 3 = 41.6666666667

41.66666666667 X 2
= 83.3333......
Technically not correct, because you cannot split sixth graders into pieces, so you would probably round it to 84 students.
