Simply plug 15/17 into you calculator
and it will give you a decimal, in this case it should be .88235294...
simply move the decimal back to placements and you should have
88.235294... thats still a lot of numbers so just reduce it to 2 places after the decimal and add a percent sign
88.23%
and your done :) this works for any similar problems
I hope this helps
Answer:
<u>36 tables are used to seat the students at the banquet: 12 rectangular and 24 round.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
Round tables = 8 seats
Rectangular tables = 12 seats
Ratio of round tables to rectangular tables = 2:1
Number of students = 336
2. How many tables are used to seat 336 students at the banquet, if no table has an empty seat?
x = Number of rectangular tables
2x = Number of round tables
Let's solve for x, using this equation:
12x + 8 (2x) = 336
12x + 16x = 336
28x = 336
x = 336/28
x = 12 ⇒ 2x = 24
12 + 24 = 36
<u>36 tables are used to seat the students at the banquet: 12 rectangular and 24 round.</u>
