The answer is:  " 3:5" ; or, write as:  "3/5<span>" .
</span>___________________________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________________________________
  "60%" =  60/100  = 60 ÷ 100" ;  so take:  "60" ; and move the decimal back
TWO (2) places (since "100" has "two zeros" ; and since we are DIVIDING) ;

Note: Since we are "dividing"; we move the decimal BACK (to the LEFT). 

→ that is:  treat "60" as: "60." ;  and move the "implied decimal" back two spaces;   to get:  "0.60"  ;  which simplies to:  "0.6" ; 

→ 0.6 = 6/10 ; which reduces:  "6/10 = (6÷2)/(10÷2) = 3/5 ; or, write as:  "3:5".
_______________________________________________________
Other methods:
________________________________________________________
 "60%" =  60/100 ;  cancel out 'one zero' from both the numerator and the denominator; which is the same as:  "60/100 = (60÷10)/(100÷10) = 6/10 ;  Then reduce to:  "3/5"; or write as: "3:5" ; as explained above.
________________________________________________________
Other method:  Use calculator:  "60%" to get: "0.6" and write as "6/10" and—as aforementioned— reduce to: "3/5" (unless your calculator does not automatically include this fraction mode as well); and write the answer as:  "3/5" ; or "3:5" .

    → Alternately, using a calculator:  "60 ÷ 100" ;  and follow through using the directly aforementioned method—as well as the aforementioned methods, if needed; to ultimately get: "0.6" —which equals: "6/10"—and ultimately get:                   "3/5" ; or, write as:  "3:5" .

Hope this explanation, albeit lengthy, is helpful

ZX bisects ∠WZY. If the measure of ∠YXZ is (6m – 12)°, what is the value of m?
krok68 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.  17

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, ZX bisects ∠WZY. If the measure of ∠YXZ is (6m – 12)°

<u>To find the value of m</u>

From the figure we can see that, triangle WYZ is an isosceles  triangle.

ZW = ZY

Then <YXZ = <WXZ = 90°

It is given ∠YXZ  = (6m – 12)°

(6m – 12)° =  90°

6m = 90 + 12  = 102

m = 102/6 = 17

Therefore the value of m = 17

The correct answer is option B.  17
