If you check Mathway it shows you how to convert 37.5% into a fraction, 3/8, but "<span>The number 37.5 is expressed as 37 1/2 in simplified terms or 75/2 as a fraction." is the most common answer shown on the web.</span>
Since the question is asking how many pencils the teacher will have to give out, we can automatically ignore the 46 erasers from the problem because it is not relevant. The information was most likely put there to confuse you.
Each student is getting 28 pencils, so if we multiply the number of students by 28 pencils, we will find how many pencils the teacher will need to give out.
There are 42 children in the classroom, so multiply 42 by 28.
42 * 28 = 1,176
The teacher will have to give out <u>1,176 pencils</u> to her 42 children in the classroom.
a. First five terms: 9,13,17,21,25
b. Sum of first 25 terms = 1425
c. The given sequence is an arithmetic sequence because the common difference between two consecutive terms is same.
Further explanation:
Given
Formula of sequence
<u>1. First 5 terms:</u>
For first 5 terms, we have to put n=1,2,...5,
So,
<u>2. Sum of first 25 terms:</u>
For that we have to find 25th term first
The formula for sum is:
<u>3. Type of sequence</u>
The given sequence is an arithmetic sequence because the common difference between two consecutive terms is same.
