Troy had 44 celery sticks on a tray for his party. He put peanut butter on 25% of the celery sticks. How many celery sticks on t

GarryVolchara [31]

Hello!

We know that any given percentage can be expressed as a fraction with a denominator of 100, as follows:

$\frac{x}{100}$

Because we want to find 25% of the celery sticks, we can convert this percentage into the following fraction:

$\frac{25}{100}$ = $\frac{1}{4}$

Now multiply this reduced fraction by the number of celery sticks:

44 × $\frac{1}{4}$ = $\frac{44}{4}$

The fraction $\frac{44}{4}$ can be reduced to a value of 11. We have now proven that 11 celery sticks received peanut butter.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

The distance between E and F is 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

E and F are share the same y-coordinates. So for this part it is okay to not use the distance formula. 

So you will be having:

E (5,8) and F (5,3)

EF = 8-3=5

OR 

YOU CAN USE THE DISTANCE FORMULA AS INDICAYED IN THE PICTURE.

Hopefully the picture is clear and understandable and younger the explanation.
