The answer is 56%
You first divide 28 by 50=.56, then since it's a decimal, you move the decimal twice to the right to make a percentage=56%
Hi! I'm happy to help!
Our town is composed of 2,000 people. Of those 2,000 people, 4/5 of them are middle class. The word 'of' usually means multiplication when it is in a word problem. So, we will multiply 2,000 by 4/5. When multiplying a whole number, we just multiply it by the numerator (top) and leave the denominator. (bottom)
2,000×4
8,000
8,000/5
Fractions are just a different way of putting division, so we can change this to a division problem:
8,000÷5=
1,600
1,600 of the people are middle class.
I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D
The answer is 1/(x+4)
Explanation:
You would factor out the denominator
So,
(X-4)(x+4)=x^2-16
So, x-4/(x+4)(x-4)
Then x-4 cancels each other out from the numerator and denominator
Leaving 1/x+4
