Answer:
270
Step-by-step explanation:
37 % of a number is the same as divide by 100 and multiply by 37. To get this number we do the opposite: divide 99.9 by 37 which gives us 27 and then multiply by 100 which will give us 270.
if we check this: 270 /100 *37 = 99,9
Answer:
$12
Step-by-step explanation:
1.75/3= 0.6 (1dp)
0.6 x 20 = 12
Use a box. Split the terms into the boxes and then multiply across. Sort of like area multiplication, only with terms.
3 5x
4y 12y 20xy
3 9 15x
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Example 1: Changing the whole number 5 into a fraction.
Take the whole number (5), add a line below it (/), then add a 1 to the denominator.
5 = 5/1
Example 2: Changing the whole number 5 into a fraction.
Take the whole number (5), multiply it by 2 add a line below it (/), then add a 2 to the denominator.
5 = (5*2)/2 = 10/2
***This can be reduced to 5/1***
Example 3: Changing the whole number 5 into a fraction.
Take the whole number (5), multiply it by 3 add a line below it (/), then add a 3 to the denominator.
5 = (5*3)/3 = 15/3
***This can also be reduced to 5/1***
If you follow the pattern, you will realize all whole numbers are fractions already.
They are fractions with a denominator of 1. This fraction can be manipulated with all of the same standard rules you would traditionally use with fractions, even when the denominator isn’t shown.
A fraction is simply a way to describe portions of a whole. The denominator simply tells you how many pieces to break the whole into. When the denominator is 1, you are breaking the whole into one piece (or not breaking it apart at all.
I hope this helps.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the library surveyed 240 people and only 15% chose documentaries, then only 36 people chose documentaries and the other 204 chose something else other than documentaries. You had to get 15% into decimal form and to do that you move the "." in 15.0% left 2 places so you get 0.15. Then you multiply 240 by 0.15 and you get 36.
