There are 1,295 students attending a small university.There are 714 women enrolled. What percent of the students are women. Equa

Semenov [28]

If 1295 × p = 714, then you can rearrange the equation to find the percentage.

You have to get p on its own, so you divide 1295 on both sides of the '='.

1295 × p = 714

p = 714 ÷ 1295

p = <span>0.55135135135...

p </span>× 100 = actual percentage

actual percentage = 55.14%

butalik [34]

Answer:

Regina has bought $2\frac{5}{8}\ pounds$ of apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount of fruit brought = $8\frac{7}{8}\ pounds$

Now given number is in mixed fraction we will convert into improper fraction.

To convert a mixed fraction to an improper fraction, we will Multiply the whole number part by the fraction's denominator. Add that to the numerator,Then write the result on top of the denominator.

So we can say that;

$8\frac{7}{8}\ pounds$ can be Rewritten as $\frac{71}{8}\ pounds$

Amount of fruit brought = $\frac{71}{8}\ pounds$

Also given:

Amount of oranges bought = $3\frac12\ pounds$

$3\frac12\ pounds$ can be Rewritten as $\frac{7}{2}\ pounds$

Amount of oranges bought = $\frac{7}{2}\ pounds$

Amount of peaches bought = $2 \frac34\ pounds$

$2 \frac34\ pounds$ can be Rewritten as $\frac{11}{4}\ pounds$

Amount of peaches bought = $\frac{11}{4}\ pounds$

We need to find amount of apples bought by Regina.

Solution:

Let the amount of apples bought be 'x'

Now we know that;

Amount of fruit brought is equal to sum of Amount of oranges bought and Amount of peaches bought amount of apples.

framing in equation form we get;

$\frac{71}{8}=\frac{7}{2}+\frac{11}{4}+x\\\\x=\frac{71}{8}-\frac{7}{2}-\frac{11}{4}$

Now we will make the denominator common using LCM we get.

$x=\frac{71\times 1}{8\times 1}-\frac{7\times4}{2\times4}-\frac{11\times2}{4\times2}\\\\x=\frac{71}{8}-\frac{28}{8}-\frac{22}{8}$

Now denominators are same so we will solve the numerator.

$x=\frac{71-28-22}{8}\\\\x=\frac{21}{8}\ pounds$

Now $\frac{21}{8}\ pounds$ can be Rewritten as $2\frac{5}{8}\ pounds$

Hence Regina has bought $2\frac{5}{8}\ pounds$ of apples.

That's a quarter of the circle. So find the area of the circle, and divide by 4 to get the answer.

Circle area = 3.14*13^2 = 530.66
Answer = circle area / 4 = 132.665
