Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Paula, a college student, earned one summer = $3,600
We have to show the amount in fraction that Paula spent during the following semester,
she spent for tuition = $2,500 = × 100
=0.6944 × 100
= 69.44% or
She spent for rent = $650 = × 100
= 0.1806 × 100
= 18.06% or
Paula spent for food = $430 = × 100
=0.1194 × 100
= 11.94% or
She Spent in tuition, rent and food = 2,500 + 650 + 430 = $3580
Now she spent in miscellaneous expenses = 3600 - 3580 = $20.00 × 100
= 0.056 × 100
= 0.56% or
18. Let's start by finding the ratio, since this will make it easier to model it on the number line.
We can write 6 as
so
In order to do a division of fractions, we multiply both ends of the operation and put the result in the numerator, and then we multiply the two numbers in the middle and put them in the denominator:
In other words, the quotient is 8.
17. Now that we know the result of the operation, we simply mark the 8 on the number line:
