Answer: 5.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the money invested has grown to $8300 and the principal was $600, this means the interest is:

= $8300 - $6500

= $1800

Simple interest = (Principal × Rate × Time)/100

1800 = (6500 × Rate × 5)/100

Cross multiply

1800 × 100 = 32500 × Rate

Rate = 180000/32500

Rate = 5.5%

The ratio of doves to parrots in a cage is 1 to 2. If there are 6 doves and parrots altogether then how many parrots are there?
Mama L [17]
There would be 2 doves and 4 parrots.

2 + 4 = the 6 in total, and the ratio between doves (2) and parrots (4) is 1 to 2 because the ratio of 2 to 4 is equal to 1 to 2.
