Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide 54 by 3 you get 18. Now we get the ratio of boys which is 2 and you multiply it by 18 as 1 ratio I'm this case is 18.

Once you multiply the two numbers, you get 36 boys.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

36 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 part of the ratio relates to 54 girls.

Divide the number of girls by 3 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

54 ÷ 3 = 18 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus

2 parts = 2 × 18 = 36 ← number of boys

ANTONII [103]

Answer: The required expression is,

4k + 2d

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

She feeds her kitten k gram of food,

She feeds 2 times in the morning,

⇒ Food fed in morning = 2k,

Also, she feeds 2 times in the evening,

⇒ Food fed in evening = 2k,

So, the total food she gives to her kitten = 2k + 2k = 4k,

Now, She feeds her dog d gram of food,

She feeds 1 times in the morning,

⇒ Food fed in morning = d,

Also, she feeds 2 times in the evening,

⇒ Food fed in evening = d,

So, the total food she gives to her dog = d + d = 2d,

Hence, the total food she feeds to her animal in a day = 4 k + 2 d

There are 3 counselors assigned to each group of 24 campers, how many campers would there be if there was 9 counselors

olya-2409 [2.1K]

There would be 72 campers because if you divided 24 by 3 it gives you 8 and than you’ll multiply 8 by 9 and it’ll give you 72.

Answer:

They lose about 2.79% in purchasing power.

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever you're dealing with purchasing power and inflation, you need to carefully define what the reference is for any changes you might be talking about. Here, we take <em>purchasing power at the beginning of the year</em> as the reference. Since we don't know when the 6% year occurred relative to the year in which the saving balance was $200,000, we choose to deal primarily with percentages, rather than dollar amounts.

Each day, the account value is multiplied by (1 + 0.03/365), so at the end of the year the value is multiplied by about

... (1 +0.03/365)^365 ≈ 1.03045326

Something that had a cost of 1 at the beginning of the year will have a cost of 1.06 at the end of the year. A savings account value of 1 at the beginning of the year would purchase one whole item. At the end of the year, the value of the savings account will purchase ...

... 1.03045326 / 1.06 ≈ 0.9721 . . . items

That is, the loss of purchasing power is about ...

... 1 - 0.9721 = 2.79%

_____

If the account value is $200,000 at the beginning of the year in question, then the purchasing power <em>normalized to what it was at the beginning of the year</em> is now $194,425.14, about $5,574.85 less.
