Answer:

There were 62 deaths

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the number of robberies in 2012.

From the question we can identify that the number of robberies were up 50% to 93. What this means is that the number is simply 150% of the old number.

Now, let’s represent the number of deaths in 2012 by x

Mathematically;

150% of x = 93

150/100 * x = 93

150x = 93 * 100

150x = 9300

x = 9300/150

x= 62

This means there were 62 deaths in the year 2012

Answer:

There were 62 robberies in Springfield in 2012.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's marked (named) robberies in 2012 with x, which is worth 100%

93 robberies in 2013 worth 100% + 50% = 150%

Now we will make proportion

x : 93 = 100 : 150

When we multiply external and internal members we get

x/93 = 100/150

Cross multiply

150 x = 93 × 100

150x = 9300

x = 9300/150

x = 62 robberies in 2012

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Her brother gave his friends one half the pie.

Step-by-step explanation:

The whole pie is equal to 6/6, because that's equal to one. 1/3 = 1/6. 6/6 - 2/6 = 5/6. 5/6 - 2/6 = 3/6. 3/6 = 1/2.
