A proportion is simply a statement that two ratios are equal. ... In problems involving proportions, we can use cross products to test whether two ratios are equal and form a proportion. To find the cross products of a proportion, we multiply the outer terms, called the extremes, and the middle terms, called the means.

The Grade 6 students at West Village Middle School were asked if they would rather visit the Museum of Math or the Museum of Nat
Ket [755]

The number of Grade 6 students were asked in total is 100 students.

<h3>How to calculate the value?</h3>

Let the number of students who choose Natural History be x.

Since the number of students who chose the Museum of Math was 50 more than the number of students who chose the Museum of Natural History. This will be x + 50

The ratio of students who chose the Museum of Math to students who chose the Museum of Natural History was 3 to 1. The expression will be illustrated thus:

1/3 = x/x+50

Cross multiply

3x = x + 50

Collect like terms

3x - x = 50.

2x = 50

Divide

x = 50/2

x = 25

Also, x + 50 = 25 + 50 = 75

The number of Grade 6 students that were asked will be:

= 25 + 75

= 100

The news listed that the al?rage price Of a gallon Of gasoline
Virty [35]

Answer:

b. between $3.04 and $3.36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Price of 1 gallon of gasoline = $3.20

Margin of Error = 5%

We have to find out average cost of gallon of gasoline.

For this, we have to find out 5% of the price of gasoline. Which is calculated by dividing 5 by 100 and then multiply it by 3.20.

Amount of margin of error = \frac{5}{100}\times3.20 = 0.16

Hence The margin of error is ±, So we will subtract the amount of margin of error with actual amount of 1 gallon of gasoline. Also we will add the amount of margin of error with actual amount of 1 gallon of gasoline.

Margin of error 1 = 3.20-0.16= \$3.04

Margin of error 2 = 3.20+0.16= \$3.36

Hence the Average cost of a gallon of gasoline should be between $3.04 and $3.36.
