Answer:510 students
Explanation: given that total student is 850
And Of every 10 student 6 will have to sit for a refresher math course
Hence the number that will need a refresher math course will be (850/10)*6= 510
Or better still to better understand this let's use the crossing multiplication method
of 10 student 6must do a refresher math then
Of 850 students x must do a refresher math
Cross multiplying we have
X=(850*6)/10=510 students

Answer:
B. An employer hiring someone to handle financial information
C. An apartment owner gauging whether a tenant might break the rules
D. An apartment owner determining whether to rent a unit to someone
Explanation:
Credit scores are numbers ranging from 300 to 850 that are used to gauge the creditworthiness of individuals. Creditors check the credit history of borrowers to determine how well they have performed over time in prompt payment of debts and maintenance of good financial history. The higher the credit score, the better chances an individual has of being considered for financial favors. In the above scenario,
1. The employer who wants to hire someone to handle financial information would likely want to check if he has a good financial history himself. It would be an indication of his integrity capacity.
2. An apartment owner would use the credit score to gauge the potential tenant's history of keeping to agreements.
3. A potential tenant with a bad and low credit score would likely not keep up with rent payments and would eventually be a bad tenant. So, the apartment owner might then chose not to rent his apartment to such a person.
