First convert 80% into a fraction,
80%=80/100=8/10

so now the two fractions are

8/10 and 1/8

from these, 8/10 is the bigger because,
8/10 , 1/8
8×8/10×8 , 1×10/8×10
=64/80, 10/80
from 64/80 and 10/80 64 is bigger.

answer= 80%
hope this helps........

An easy way to solve this is to convert 1/8 into a percentage then see from that point.

To turn 1/8 into a percentage, you must first get the decimal form of the fraction. In this case, 1/8 as a decimal is 0.125.

Now that we have the decimal form, we can divide the decimal over 100 (common numerical number to use when dividing) to get the percentage, which should be 12.5%.

Now, our new question is 'what's bigger, 80% or 12.5%?'

The answer is 80%, since it is larger than 12.5%.

The area of a storage shed floor is 20 ft2. The length is 3 more than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the storage shed f
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

  • 2.5 ft wide
  • 8 ft long

Step-by-step explanation:

The given relation between length and width can be used to write an expression for area. The equation setting that equal to the given area can be solved to find the shed dimensions.

__

<h3>Given relation</h3>

Let x represent the width of the shed. Then the length is (2x+3), and the area is ...

  A = LW

  20 = (2x+3)(x) . . . . . area of the shed

__

<h3>Solution</h3>

Completing the square gives ...

  2x² +3x +1.125 = 21.125 . . . . . . add 2(9/16) to both sides

  2(x +0.75)² = 21.125 . . . . . . . write as a square

  x +0.75 = √10.5625 . . . . . divide by 2, take the square root

  x = -0.75 +3.25 = 2.50 . . . . . subtract 0.75, keep the positive solution

The width of the shed is 2.5 feet; the length is 2(2.5)+3 = 8 feet.

if a lady chargers $2.00 for gas and $3.00 per 1/2 hour of work . What is the amount of money she makes in 4 hours ?
anastassius [24]

Answer:

$32

Step-by-step explanation:

The lady charges $2.00 for gas which means over a 4 hour period we would do

4 x 2 = 8

She makes a total of 8 dollars

She also gains $3.00 per half hour of work

This means we would do 3 x 8

24

We add these values to get $32
