Hello,

14/25 = x/275

25 => 275

14 => x

x = 275 * 14 / 25 = 154

Bye :)

Out of 25 respondents 14 use a password: 14/25

x amount of students out of 275 use a password: x/275

Set both fractions equal to each other

14/25 = x/275

Cross multiply.

14(275) = 25(x)

3850 = 25x

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side you do to the other.

25x/25 = 3850/25

x = 3850/25

x = 154

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

154 students out of 275 are expected to use a password

hope this helps

alexira [117]

Answer:

A) $8200.

B) 16.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question: An investment firm invested in two companies last year. They invested $40,000 in company A and made a profit of 15%. They invested $10,000 in company B and made a profit of 22%.

A) What is the investment firms total profit?

B) What is the percent profit of the total investment?

Given: Company A invested $40000 and made profit of 15%

           Company B invested $10000 and made profit of 22%

A) First lets find the profit of company A and B.

Company A= \frac{15}{100} \times \$ 40000= \$ 6000.

∴ Profit of company A is $6000.

Company B= \frac{22}{100} \times \$ 10000= \$ 2200

∴ Profit of company B is $2200.

Total profit= profit of company A+ profit of company B

⇒Total\ profit= \$ 6000+\$ 2200

∴ Total Profit= \$ 8200

Hence, the total profit of investment firm is $8200.

B) Now finding the percentage of total profit made by firm.

Total investment by the firm= \$ 40000+\$ 10000= \$ 50000

∴ Total investment done by the firm is $50000.

Percent of profit= \frac{Total\ profit}{Total\ investment} \times 100

⇒ Percent of profit= \frac{8200}{50000} \times 100

⇒ Percent of profit= \frac{82}{5} = 16.4\%

Hence, 16.4% is the percent profit of the total investment.
