Answer: 1167 girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Fraction of students at a school are boys= $\dfrac{4}{7}$

If there are 2723 students at the school, then by using multiplication operation.

The number of boys in the school= $\dfrac{4}{7}\times2723$

$=1556$

Now, the number of girls in school= Total students- Number of boys

=2723-1556=1167

Hence, there are 1167 girls.

Sam read 20% of the book on Monday and 0.2 of the book on Tuesday. If he read 50% of the remainder on Wednesday and still had 36

KonstantinChe [14]

Okay first you need to convert 0.2 to a percentage which would be 20% then 20% + 20% = 40% then it says he read 50%, 50% of 36 means that you have to multiply 36 two times to get, 72 then you do 72 * 40% = 28.8 = 29 + 72 = 101 pages in all then 101- 40%= 60.6 is how many pages were read on Monday and Tuesday.

Suppose a room is 5.2 m long by 4.3m wide and 2.9 m high and has an air conditioner that exchanges air at a rate of 1200 L/min.

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

54 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are given;

A room with dimensions 5.2 m by 4.3 m by 2.9 m
The exchange air rate is 1200 L/min

We are required to determine the time taken to exchange the air in the room;

First we are going to determine the volume of the room;

Volume of the room = length × width × height

= 5.2 m × 4.3 m × 2.9 m

= 64.844 m³

Then we should know, that 1 m³ = 1000 L

Therefore, we can convert the volume of the room into L

= 64.844 m³ × 1000 L

= 64,844 L

But, the rate is 1200 L/min

Thus, time = Volume ÷ rate

= 64,844 L ÷ 1200 L/min

= 54.0367 minutes

= 54 minutes

Therefore, it would take approximately 54 minutes
