In the fairest school 70% are below 16 years old
1/3 are teachers which is equals to = 21
Let’s start solving:
=> 1/3 of 100%
=> 100 / 3 = 33.33%
thus 33.33% = 21
=> 21 x 3 = 63, is the total number of people in the school.
Let’s try solving the number of people below 16 years old
Have you notice that you are asking for a 70% of students but there are already 33.33% of teacher. Thus your given problem is not right already.
=> 100% - 33.33% = 66.67% that’s the only remaining percentage and not 70%
=> 63 * .6667 = 42.0021
Thus, there are around 42 people who are 16 years old younger.
You should start with an equation.

The 'x' represents the week.
so now, we have to subtract 125 from the total amount which is 245.

now we have

to find 'x', we must divide 15 on each side

we are now left with

that means Sierra will have 8 weeks until she has enough money to buy the bike
<span>According the information given we understand that the room is a regular rectangle, We know that volume = lenght * widht * height, so we start by calculate the room area as length by width, that is 16.4 * 4.5 = 73.8 square metres. Then with 3.26 metres of height, the total volum will 73.8 * 3.26 = 240.58 cubic metres.</span>
<u>Answer</u>
c. buying it at a 10 percent discount without sales tax.
<u>Explanation</u>
We are going to compare the 3 choices and then determine the most cost effective.
<em>a. using a paid membership card to buy it at a 10 percent discount.</em>
10% of $100 = 10/100×100 = $10
cost = $100 - $10 = $90
On top of this $90 there is the charges of the membership card.
<em> b. buying it online at a 10 percent discount with a $5 shipping charge.</em>
100%-10% = 90%
90% of 100 = $90
Cost: $90 + $5 = $95
<em>c. buying it at a 10 percent discount without sales tax.</em>
100% - 10% = 90%
90/100 × 100 = $90. This is the must cost effective method since there is no other cost involved.
