Answer:
C. 30
Step-by-step explanation:
15 men do work in 16 days
This means that 7.5 men (15/2) would do that same work in 32 days (16x2).
If the number of men increase, the amount of days decrease.
8 men would do that work in 30 days
8 men > 7.5 men
30 days < 32 days
Answer:
1.) 18 is decreasing by 83%
2.) 16 is decreasing by 12.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Part ÷ Whole = Percent (decimal form)
1.) First, you subtract the smaller number from the larger number: 18 - 3 = 15. Then you find the percent of the part: 15 ÷ 18 = 0.833333333333. This can be rounded to 0.83. Multiply 0.83 by 100 to get the percentage: 0.83 • 100 = 83%. To check your answer, multiply 0.83 by 18. It checks out. 18 is being <em>decreased</em> by 83%.
2.) Subtract 14 from 16 to get 2. Then divide 2 by 16: 2 ÷ 16 = 0.125. Multiply that by 100: 0.125 • 100 = 12.5%. To check this, we multiply 0.125 • 16 = 2. It works. So, 16 is being <em>decreased</em> by 2%.
