Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply through by the L. C. M which is PS.

1/p*ps+1/s*ps=1*ps

P+p=ps

2p=ps

Divide both sides by 2

2p/2=ps/2

P=ps/2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I say 90 because 24 is just a little higher than 1/4 of 80 and since 1/4 of 300 is 75, 90 is the best estimate based off the sample survey. Hope this helps!

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

For every $24\ minutes$ of television time of commercials = $6\ minutes$

% of commercials $\=frac{6}{24}\times 100=25\%$

Now when time of television $=1\ hour\ 36\ minutes=60+36=96\ minutes$

$25 \%\ of 96=\frac{25}{100}\times 96=\frac{96}{4}=16\ minutes$

Of the students in your class, 12% are left-handed. What fraction of the students are left-handed? Are there more right-handed o

kvv77 [185]

The left-handed students
12% are left handed, percent means per hundred. Change percent into per 100.
12% = $\dfrac{12}{100}$

Then simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 4
$\dfrac{12}{100}$
= $\dfrac{12:4}{100:4}$
= $\dfrac{3}{25}$
This is the fraction showing the proportion of the left-handed students

The right-handed students
Determine the fraction showing the proportion of the right-handed students
1 - the left-handed
= 1 - $\dfrac{3}{25}$

Equalize the denominator to 25
$\dfrac{25}{25} - \dfrac{3}{25}$

Simplify
$\dfrac{21}{25}$
This is the proportion of the right-handed students

Are there more right-handed or left-handed students?
There are more right-handed students than the left-handed students, because 21/25 is more than 3/25
