12500 people went to fair

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that at the county fair , 12% of the people who attended received free water bottles

1,500 people received free water bottles

To find: number of peoples went to fair

Let "a" be the number of peoples went to fair

From given information,

12% of the people who attended received free water bottles and 1,500 people received free water bottles

Which means 12% of total people is equal to 1500

12% of total people = 1500

12 % of "a" = 1500

\frac{12}{100} \times a = 1500\\\\a = 1500 \times \frac{100}{12}\\\\a = \frac{150000}{12} = 12500

Thus 12500 people went to fair

Two rectangles are similar. The length and width of the first rectangle are 12
Masja [62]

Answer:

scale factor = 1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the scale factor, calculate the ratio of the length of the second rectangle to the length of the first rectangle. The corresponding ratio of widths should also equal the same ratio.

scale factor = \frac{14.4}{12} = \frac{6}{5} = 1.2
