Answer:
27 of the pets are dogs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Real easy way to do this, treat 45 (the total) as 100. So, do 45/100 then multiply the result of that by 60, and you end up with 27.
45/100=0.45
0.45*60=27
Answer: A. divided the difference of the two quantities by the sum of the two quantities.
===================================================
Explanation:
The difference of the quantities is 20-15 = 5
The sum of the quantities is 20+15 = 35
Dividing those results leads to 5/35 = 0.142857 which rounds to 0.1429
That converts to 14.29%
This is likely the path Adam took. This path is incorrect. The correct steps are shown below
---------------------
Difference = 20-15 = 5
Divide the difference over the original quantity
5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
We have a 25% decrease because the new quantity (15) is smaller than the old quantity (20)
----------------------
Here's another way to approach the problem
A = old value = 20
B = new value = 15
C = percent change
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%
C = [ (15-20)/20 ] * 100%
C = (-5/20)*100%
C = -0.25*100%
C = -25%
The negative C value means we have a negative percent change, ie we have a percent decrease. So this is another way to get a 25% decrease.
Answer:
Don't quote me on this but I believe the answer is that he is 8 years old right now if that's what you're looking for
Step-by-step explanation:
8 + 16 = 24
8 × 3 = 24
That's what I thought
4.5. because ⁼3=9, and 9 divided by 2 is 4.5
