To determine this, we need to set up fractional proportions.
First, put 12.5% (what we're looking for) over 100%, which is the total (256).
12.5/100 should be your first fraction.
Now, put x over 256, x being 12.5% of 256.
x/256 should be your second fraction.
Now put these two fractions as an equation.
x/256 = 12.5/100
This may be where things get tricky if you don't pay attention.
Cross multiply the top number (numerator) of x/256 with the bottom number (denominator) of 12.5/100.
You should end up with 100x.
Now, cross multiply the top number of 12.5/100 with the bottom number of x/256.
You should end up with 3200.
Now our equation is:
100x = 3200
Divide both sides by 100 to get x.
100x/100 = x
3200/100 = 32
x = 32 is now your simplified equation.
Your final answer is:
32 is 12.5% of 256.
Also, since 12.5% is 1/8 of 100%, we can test our answer.
Multiply 32 by 8 to get 8/8 (100%).
32 x 8 = 256.
Your answer is 32.
I hope this helps!
The answer would be 120 because point p is 60 degrees, since the triangle is an equilateral triangle. Then you would do 180-60, which is 120.
Answer:
two dice are thrown, so S = {(1,1); (1,2); (1,3); ...;(6,5); (6,6)} ---> 36
the sum is 2, 4, 6
sum = 2 --> (1,1) ---> 1
= 4 --> (1,3); (2;2); (3,1) ---> 3
= 6 --> (1,5); (2,4); (3,3); (4;2); (5,1) ---> 5
⇒ 
= 9/36 = 1/4
