Hello!
If there are 32 people in total in the class, and 20 of them are girls, that means there are 12 boys in the class
so the ratio of boys to girls is 12:20
to get simplest form, divide by the greatest common factor. which in this case, is 4.
12 / 4 = 3
20 / 4 = 5
your final answer is: boys:girls, 3:5
I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
-12/13, as you make it into an improper fraction so 12×-1+1=13 so the 13 goes over the 12 to get -13/12 than you flip it to get the reciprocal with is -12/13
Answer:
<em>The single percentage change is 27.46%</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentage</u>
Suppose x is the initial number. It will be decreased by 7%.
(7/100)x=0.07x
x - 0.07x = 0.93x
This last number will be decreased by 22%.
0.93x*(22/100)=0.2046x
0.93x-0.2046x=0.7254x
The last number is 72.54% of the initial number. This is equivalent to a single decrease of:
100% - 72.54% = 27.46%
The single percentage change is 27.46%
10*7*5=350 in3, the volume of 1 brick
14,000 in3 is the volume of all the concrete
Let X=the number of bricks
350*X=14000
X=14000/350
X=40 bricks
60% decrease
15 is 60% of 25
What is 60% of 25?
Y is 60% of 25
Equation: Y = P% * X
Solving our equation for Y
Y = P% * X
Y = 60% * 25
Converting percent to decimal:
p = 60%/100 = 0.6
Y = 0.6 * 25
Y = 15
