Answer:
D. 245.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you take 1,085 cars and divide it by 31, and then take that answer and multiply it by 7 you get 245.
Two basic ways in which to do this problem:
1. Find and apply the LCD.
2. Convert all of the given numbers to their decimal form, to 2 or 3 places only.
Try #2 first:
5/6 = 0.83
4/5 = 0.80 is not between 5/6 and 1. Reject it.
4/7 = 0.57 Reject
6/7 = 0.86 This is between 5/6 and1. This is the answer.
notice |7| 7 is positive, so we can simply remove the bars and use 7 by itself
Since in 1990 there are 28%, we need to figure out when it gets to 31%. In addition, since it increases by 0.6% every year, we can say that 0.6x+28 (since 28 is the base value) is the percentage of babies born in wedlock every year. Therefore, to get 0.6x+28=31, we subtract 28 from both sides to get 0.6x=3
Dividing both sides by 0.6, we get x=5=the amount of years it takes to get 31% of babies born in wedlock. Since 1990 is the base value (we start from there!), we add 5 to that to get 1990+5=1995 as the yar
