Answer:  45

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

5 : 5 : 3 is simplified so it can be rewritten as  5x  :  5x  :  3x

                                                                            ↓        ↓      ↓

                                                                        Sara    Nick  June

Sara has 18 more than June --> 5x = 3x + 18

                                                    2x = 18

                                                      x = 9

In expanded form we have 5(9) : 5(9) : 3(9)

                                              45  :  45  :  27

                                               ↓        ↓      ↓

                                           Sara    Nick  June

The product of a number and five is eight
artcher [175]

Answer:

Assuming x is the number, then x=1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

If the product of a number and 5 is 8, the equation becomes:

5x=8 (assuming x is the unknown number).

We can isolate the variable x by dividing both sides by 5.

5x\div5 = 8\div5\\x = 1.6

Hope this helped!

If the area of a square is increased by 69%, then the side of the square is increased by what percent?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Percent Increase in measure of the side of a square = 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the measure of the side of a square = s

Area of the square = (Side)²

                                = s²

If the area of the square is increased by 69%

Area of the new square = s² + 69% of s²

                                        = s² + 0.69s²

                                        = 1.69s²

Therefore, measure of the side of the new square = √(Area of the square)

                                                                                    = √(1.69s²)

                                                                                    = 1.3s

Measure of side of the old square = s

Therefore, increase in measure of the square = 1.3s - s

                                                                            = 0.3s

Percent increase in the measure of the side of the square

= \frac{\text{Increase in measure}}{\text{Measure of the side of the original square}}\times 100

= \frac{0.3s}{s}\times 100

= 30%

According to a certain​ country's department of​ education, 43.9​% of​ 3-year-olds are enrolled in day care. What is the probabi
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: The required probability is 0.439.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Percentage of 3- year old are enrolled in day care = 43.9%

So, the probability that a randomly selected 3 year old is enrolled in day care is given by

\dfrac{43.9}{100}\\\\=\dfrac{439}{100\times 10}\\\\=\dfrac{439}{1000}\\\\=0.439

Hence, the required probability is 0.439.
