Because a polygon is a shape that has equal sides and no curves.
Answer:
36 is 25% of 144
Step-by-step explanation:
25% means 25/100 or 1/4. Thus, 36 is 1/4 of 36*4 = 144
You have to solve this algebraicly.
To do this set up the proportion and add x to each term.
You get 4x and 7x
Set this equal to 33
4x+7x=33
Combine like terms and get 11x=33
Divide by 11
x=3
Now go back to 4x and 7x
Multiply them by x and get 12(4×3=12) and 21(7×3=21)
One group is 12 and the other is 21.
