IN order to find the percentage of the applicants accepted by the school, we have to convert the denominator as 100 using equivalent fractions concept.

After converting the denominator as 100, what we get in numerator is the percentage of applicants accepted by the school.

Now in our case we are given 4/5 of the applicants are accepted by the school.

So let us find its equivalent fraction with denominator 100.

We have 5 in denominator, so we would multiply it with 20 to get 100.

We will also multiply numerator with 20, to make an equivalent fraction.

So we have,

\frac{4*20}{5*20}

Which is equal to 80/100.

NUmerator is 80.

So 80 percent of application are accepted by the school.

5×20 is 100. Then 4×20 is 80. You get 80/100, so it is equal to 80%.

Fernando will divide 0.24 by 4 to help him solve a math problem. Which model below could represent this math problem
balandron [24]

Answer:

So the model should represent either \frac{6}{100} or\frac{3}{50} (its equivalent and simplified form.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Originally the question wants to represent this quotient as tiles.

So,\frac{\frac{24}{100}}{4} =\frac{24}{100} *\frac{1}{4} =\frac{6}{100}=

We can still simplify it, but since we're dealing with 100 x 100 squares let's keep it this way

2) So the model should represent either \frac{6}{100} or\frac{3}{50} (its equivalent and simplified form.

Two sides of a triangle measure 9 cm and 23 cm what could be the measurement of the third side of the triangle
Vladimir79 [104]
Pythagorean Theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2
(9)^2 + b^2 = (23)^2
81 + b^2 = 529
b^2 = 529 - 81
b^2 = 448
b^2 =
\sqrt{448}
b = 21.2
