Say you have the fraction 1/2 to the power of 2, so 1/2^2. You could also write this down as: 1/2*(times)1/2 or 0,5*0,5. Whenever you multiply by a number smaller than one, the outcome will get smaller. Whenever you multiply by a number larger than one, the outcome will be larger.

Wouldn't (D) be the right answer?? I divided 23% by 5,260, but I'm not 100% sure it's correct.
atroni [7]
It would be c. Ian would predict that 23% of the 5,260 would list a sport. Usually when you phrase things like x OF y you multiply. So 23%(or .23) x 5,260 = 1209.8 and we can round to a whole person, giving us 1,210 people

Alex

Answer:

252 bags of maize

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that a farmer harvested maize

In the year 2012 = 144 bags of maize

In the year 2013(following year) the harvest decreased in the ratio 3:4

This means

3:4 = 2013: 2012.

Where number of bags harvested in 2013 = unknown = x

3/4 = x/ 144

Cross multiply 4x = 3 × 144

x = 3 × 144/ 4

× = 108

This means 108 bags of maize was harvested in 2013

The total number of bags harvested is = 108 + 144

= 252 bags of maize.

5 men take 45hours to build a wall.how long will it take 9men working at the same wall?​
Karolina [17]

Answer:

<u>25 hours</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

It takes 5 men 45 hours to build a wall.

So, if no. of men increases by 1.8 [∴ 5 x 1.8 = 9],

then time taken reduces by that same amount.

=> 45 hours / 1.8

=> 45 / (9/5)

=> 45 x 5 / 9

=> 5 x 5

=> <u>25 hours</u>
