Answer:
132 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Mr Smith offers to take extra help session for students after school
The day after the help session 11 of his students were talking and found out that only 2 had stayed up for the help session
= 2/11
There were actually a total number of 24 students that stayed
We are asked to find the number of student that Mr Smith teaches throughout the day
Let x represent the number of students that were taught during the day
Therefore, the number of student that Mr Smith teaches during the day can be calculated as follows
2/11=24/x
Cross multiply both sides
2 × x = 24 × 11
2x= 264
Divide both sides by 2
2x/2=264/2
x= 132
Hence Mr Smith teaches 132 students during the day.
Oof I was going to answer this but it got me confusion.
1 1/5 - 1/3
6/5-1/3
18/15-5/15
13/15 is your answer.
The answers are :
10) 25 : 24
11) 24 : 5
12) 36 : 5
13) 7 : 3
14) 15 : 1
<u>Ratio = Number of event 1 : Number of event 2</u> (in same unit, if necessary)
<u>10</u>
Girls preferring orange juice : Boys preferring orange juice
50 : 48 (Divide by 2 on both sides)
25 : 24
<u>11</u>
Boys preferring orange juice : Boys preferring grapefruit juice
48 : 10 (Divide by 2 on both sides)
24 : 5
Remember :
- <u>1 minute = 60 seconds</u>
- <u>1 week = 7 days</u>
- <u>1 hour = 60 minutes</u>
<u />
<u>12</u>
3 minutes : 25 seconds
3 × 60 : 25 (Divide by 5 on both sides)
3 × 12 : 5
36 : 5
<u>13</u>
2 weeks : 6 days
2 × 7 : 6 (Divide by 2 on both sides)
7 : 3
<u>14</u>
5 hours : 20 minutes
5 × 60 : 20 (Divide by 20 on both sides)
5 × 3 : 1
15 : 1
The first is proportional the second is proportional and the third is not proportional
