Since there are 3 sides in a triangle, and each side increased by 6, that means that the perimeter increased by 18 inches. Down below, I did 3x because there are 3 sides in a triangle.

(This is the equation you'd want to do to get the answer)

3x + 3 * 6 = 60

Simplify:

3x + 18 = 60

Same to both sides

3x = 42

Isolate x:

x = 14

Hanz’s class had a goal to collect 250 cans of food for the school food drive. They collected 290 cans. What percent of their go

soldi70 [24.7K]

Given:

Goal = 250 cans

Number of collected cans = 290

To find:

The percent of their goal they achieved.

Solution:

The percent of their goal they achieved is:

$\text{Required percent}=\dfrac{\text{Number of collected cans}}{\text{Goal}}\times 100$

$\text{Required percent}=\dfrac{290}{250}\times 100$

$\text{Required percent}=\dfrac{29}{25}\times 100$

$\text{Required percent}=29\times 4$

$\text{Required percent}=116$

Therefore, they achieved 116% of their goal.
