To solve this you put it into a ratio
the number of students that like it will go on top and the total college students will be on bottom
5/8
if a college has a total of 4000 students, that will go on bottom and x will be on top
x/4000
to solve for x you would multiply 5 by 4000, and then divide by 8
this would give you x=2500

5 out of 8 turned into a fraction is 5/8. 5/8 turned into a percentage is 62.5%. 62.5% of 4,000 is 2,500. 2,500 students in the college like algebra.
Hope this helped.

What is 2-(-8)????? And how do you solve it????
marusya05 [52]
<h3>Answer: 10</h3>

Subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive. So 2-(-8) is really 2+8 = 10.

With something like 2-8, we start at 2 and move to the left 8 units to arrive at -6 on the number line. When we do 2-(-8), we start at 2 and move 8 units in the opposite direction since -8 is the opposite of 8.

In terms of money, you can think of a negative number as an IOU or it represents the amount of debt. Writing -8 means you are 8 dollars in debt. If we subtract away debt, then we have less of it and effectively its the same as adding dollars to your pocket. Subtracting away 8 dollars of debt is the same as adding 8 dollars to your pocket, which is one interpretation of how 2-(-8) is the same as 2+8.
