Green.


You first must find the Least Common Denominator(LCD) of the fractions. You find that it is 20. 4/5 will turn into 16/20 because you must make it have a denominator with 20, and by doing so, you must multiply to get 20. 4×4=16, 5×4=20: 16/20. For 1/2, simply multiply by 10 to get 20 as the denominator. 1×10=10, 2×10=20: 10/20. Compare the two. You may convert the fractions to decimals to make your answer reasonable. 16/20 is clearly more than 10/20, so there is your answer.

P.S

16/20 is 0.8 as a decimal.
10/20 is 0.5 as a decimal.

Oh, and You're welcome!

Nathan earns $1500 a week. Calculate his new weekly wage if he receives a pay rise of 20%
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

$1800

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approanch

An easy way to calculate one's salary after they recive a raise is to, convert the percent that one's salary is increased into a decimal; divide the percent by 100. Then multiply the increase as a decimal by the original salary, to attain the amount the salary is raised by. Finally add the amount the salary is raised by to the original salary to find the new salary. A quicker way to do this is to convert the percent by the salary is increased into a decimal. Then add 1 to that number. Finally one will multiply that number by the original slary and get the new salary.

2. Solving

Original salary; 1500

Raise; 20%

<u>a. convert the raise as a percent into a decimal, then add 1</u>

20% = 0.2

0.2 + 1 = 1.2

<u>b. multiply the number by the original salary</u>

1.2 * 1500

1800

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

She should order a total of 5,160 medium sized t-shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the number of medium sized t-shirt to be ordered, we shall be using the proportion of students that wanted medium sized t-shirt in her survey to multiply the total number of students that we have.

From the question, we can identify that the probability that a student will like a medium sized t-shirt is simply 129/300

Now we have about 12000 students in the University, using the probability from the survey, the number of medium sized t shirt she should order would be;

129/300 * 12,000 = 129 * 40 = 5,160 medium sized t-shirts
