Answer:

66 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens:

●120% boys of girls

▪︎1.2 × g

☆when g is the number of girls

●80 boys

▪︎meaning you can set up a proportion

Solving:

g × 1.2 = 80

g=80/1.2

g=66.66

So, since you can't go over percent, the answer is 66.

Checking:

g × 1.2 = 80

66 × 1.2 = 80

80=80✅

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor x² - 5x - 6

x² - 5x - 6 = (x + 1)(x - 6)

\frac{x-6}{(x+1)(x-6)}

Cancel the common factor.

\frac{1}{x+1}

\frac{1}{x+1} · \frac{x+1}{5}

\frac{1*(x+1)}{5*(x+1)}

Cancel the common factor.

Ted is making a bread recipe that uses three 1/4 cups of flour and a muffin recipe that uses 2 3/4 cups of flour eggs. How much
wlad13 [49]

Amount of flour used in bread recipe = 3 \frac{1}{4} cups

Amount of flour used in muffin recipe = 2 \frac{3}{4} cups

We have to determine how much more flour is in the recipe.

Since, more amount of flour is used in bread recipe than in muffin recipe.

Total amount of more flour = 3 \frac{1}{4} - 2 \frac{3}{4}

= \frac{13}{4} - \frac{11}{4}

= \frac{2}{4}

= \frac{1}{2}

Therefore, \frac{1}{2} more cup of flour is used in bread recipe than in muffin recipe.

Now, we will determine the total amount of flour used in both recipe.

Total amount of flour used in bread and muffin recipe

= 3 \frac{1}{4} + 2 \frac{3}{4}

= \frac{13}{4} + \frac{11}{4}

=\frac{24}{4}

= 6 cups

Therefore, total 6 cups of flour are used in both the recipes.

What percent of 150 is 108?
N76 [4]
X% of 150 = 108

x/100 * 150 = 108

1.5x = 108

x =108 / 1.5

x = 72

Therefore 72% of 150 is 108

Hope this helps.
