Answer:
605 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
If the ratio of boys to girls is 5:7
and there are 847 girls
we can plug this value into the ratio by doing something like:
5:7
= 5/7
= x/847
Because the ratio has to be the same, we can substitute x for the number of boys and solve by the cross method or whatever you guys call it.
5 x
--- x ------
7 847
The x in the middle is just to show the direction you are multiplying.
the 5 is multiplied by the 847 and the 7 is multiplied by x.
847 * 5 = 4,235
4,235 divided by 7 is 605
605 is your answer.
The cross method can be used in most situations.
* is used to represent multiplication btw
Answer:
make the denominators ( bottom number ) the same and whatever u do to that do to the top
Step-by-step explanation:
e.g ½ - ⅓
make the common denominator 6
to get from 2 to 6 u times by 3 so it wud be 3/6
and then to get from 3 to 6 u times by 2 so do the same to the numerator (top number) so u get 2/6
3/6 take away 2/6 is 1/6

Answer:
x° = 37°
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets revise some facts of a circle
- The secant is a line intersect the circle in two points
- If two secants intersect each other in a point outside the circle,
then the measure of the angle between them is half the difference
of the measures of their intercepted arcs
* Now lets solve the problem
- There is a circle
- Two secants of this circle intersect each other in a point outside
the circle
∴ The measure of the angle between them = 1/2 the difference of the
measures of their intercepted arcs
∵ The measure of the angle between them is x°
∵ The measures of their intercepted arcs are 26° and 100°
- Use the rule above to find x
∴ x° = 1/2 [ measure of the large arc - measure of small arc]
∵ The measure of the large arc is 100°
∵ The measure of the small arc is 26°
∴ x° = 1/2 [100 - 26] = 1/2 [74] = 37°
∴ x° = 37°
Answer:
D. 68%
Step-by-step explanation:
38/56 = 0.678
Move the decimal over 2 spots to get 67.8
Round that up to 68
