Calculate the percentage increase,work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing. Then divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. 

520-500 = 20
20÷500 =.04
.04 ×100= 4%

Travka [436]

Answer:

0.001

Step-by-step explanation:

Ericsson is claimed to increase the likelihood of a baby girl ;

Given the alternative hypothesis to buttress this claim :

HA : p>0.5

In other to establish the success of Ericsson's claim, then there must be significant evidence to reject the Null hypothesis ; hence adopt the alternative.

To Do this, we need a very small Pvalue ; such that it will be lesser than the α - value in other to reject the Null and adopt the alternative.

Recall ;

Pvalue < α ; We reject the Null

Therefore, from the options, we choose the smallest Pvalue as we want the Pvalue to be as small as possible.

4. A number m is such that when it is divided by 30, 36, and 45 the remainder is always 7,
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

187

Step-by-step explanation:

A number m is such that when it is divided by 30, 36 and 45 the remainder is always 7.

We should first find the LCM of 30, 36 and 45

We get that the LCM of the three numbers is 280 (working attached).

So now;

\frac{180}{30} = 6

\frac{180}{36} = 5

\frac{180}{45} = 4

But we need a number that leaves a remainder of 7 so we add 7 to 180 to get; 180 + 7 = 187.
