Let s = # of students in the sixth grade. 60% of these, or 0.60s, ate pizza: thus, 0.60s = 36. Solving for s, s = 36/0.60 = 60.
There are 60 students in the sixth grade.
First you'll need to find the area of each side and then add those areas together. 2(6x10)+2(4x6)+2(4x10)= 120+48+80=248
then you multiply the total area by .25 and get 62. It will cost $62.
Because the design is scaled by 3, the new dimensions are 9*3 X 12*3 = 27 X 36
Since the dimensions are 27 X 36, the area is equal to 27*36 = 972 square inches.
