Answer:

The greatest number is 32 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

The ratio of three numbers is 4 : 3 : 1.

The sum of the numbers is 64.

Let us assume that the x be the scalar multiple of the numbers .

First number = 4x

Second number = 3x

Third number = x

Than the equation becomes

4x + 3x + x =  64

8x = 64

x = \frac{64}{8}

x = 8

Thus

First number = 4x

                     = 4 × 8

                     = 32

Second numbers = 3x

                             = 3 × 8

                             = 24

Third number = x

                       = 8

Therefore the greatest number is 32 .

Total value of ratio = 4+3+1 = 8

value of 1 unit = 64/8 = 8

numbers are 4(8), 3(8), 1(8) = 32, 24, 8

so, the greatest number is 32

98 Points And Brainliest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!A poll asked 15 men in two age groups, 30 and younger and older than 3
bekas [8.4K]
The first thing you need to do is classify all the men into 4 groups which are:
1) 30 and younger with facial hair: 4
2) older than 3 with facial hair: 5
3) 30 and younger with facial hair: 3
4) older than 30 without facial hair: 4


Question (a): Make a two-way table of the data. Of the men surveyed, how many were 30 and younger? How many did not have facial hair.

                                   with facial hair          without facial hair          total
30 & younger                         4                                     3                          7
older than 30                         5                                     3                          8
total                                        9                                    6                          15
From the data you can see that:
7 men were 30 and younger and 6 men did not have facial hair.


Question (b): Create a two-way relative frequency table that displays the relative frequency of the men 30 and younger and of the men older than 30 who had or did not have facial hair. Express your answer as decimals written to three decimal places.

                               with facial hair          without facial hair          total
30 and younger             4/15                           3/15 = 1/5                 7/15
older than 30             5/15 = 1/3                      3/15 = 1/5                 8/15
total                            9/15 = 3/5                      6/15 = 2/5                   1


Question c: What percent of men older than 30 had facial hair?
The percent is equal to the relative frequency times 100% so in this case it is equal to (1/3) * 100% = 33.33%

Hope this helps!!!   :)

Your next math test is worth 111 points and contains 32 problems. Each problem is worth either 4 points or 3 points. How many 3
AysviL [449]
There are a total of 32 problems.

Assumed all 32 problems are 3 points questions ⇒ 32 x 3 = 96 points.

The test is worth 111 points, so there is an extra of 111-96 points = 15 points.

The difference in points in the 2 type of questions is 4 - 3 = 1 points.

Number of 4 points questions = 15 ÷ 1 = 15. 

Number of 3 points questions = 32 - 15 = 17.

Answer: There are 17 3-points questions and 15 4-points questions.
