There are 800 members in an astronomy club and 320 of the members are females. What percent of the members are males.

First, we need to understand what the question is asking us to do. We know that there are 800 members in the club and that 320 of the members are females. To find out how many males there are, we can subtract 320 from 800 and we will get us a difference of 480. We now know that 480 of the members in the astronomy club are males.

To find what percent are males, we can make a fraction. \frac{480}{800} represents the 480 males out of the entire club.

We can turn \frac{480}{800} into a fraction. We can reduce\frac{480}{800} by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor of 480 and 800 using 160.

Finally, we have our reduced fraction which is \frac{3}{5}

3 ÷ 5 = 0.6

0.6 × 100 = 60%

Therefore, 60% of the members in the astronomy clubs are males.

If 8 pigs can fit in a pen, how many pens are necessary to make sure 71 pigs are all in a pen?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Each pen can only hold 8 pigs, and pens cannot be split up into fractions.

Divide. 71 / 8 = 8.875

There is no 7/8 of a pen, so you must round up.

8.875 → 9.

juin [17]

The area (A) of a circle with radius r is given by

... A = π·r²

For a radius of 7 ft, the area is

... A = π·(7 ft)² = 49π ft² ≈ 154 ft²

The area of the bottom of a circular tent with radius 7 ft is about 154 ft².

ANEK [815]

Answer:

12/7

Step-by-step explanation:

When given two points, we can find the slope by using

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (4 - -8)/ (0 - -7)

    = (4+8) / (0+7)

   = 12/7
