at the gym club there are 5 males for every 3 females. the total attendance at the gym last week was 520. how many were males?
2 answers:
310 plus 210 make 520 so I would say 100 more males than females.
We can say that the ratio of males to females is 5:3 and we can solve this:
The total number of parts is 5+3 = 8
520/8 = 65
We can rewrite the ratio as:
5*65:3*65
325:195
Therefore there was 325 males

Answer:
−0.125 or - 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Pour 4 times of 124-gallon into a big jug.
Amount of water = 124 x 4 = 496 gallons
Then use the 45-gallon jug to scoop out the water 11 times.
Amount of water scooped out = 11 x 45 = 455 gallons
Water remaining = 496 - 450 = 1 gallon.
A ratio equivalent to 3/20 can be 6/40 or even 9/60
Answer: Government should provide additional resources to help low income families
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
5) 2(4 - n) = -3n
2 × 4 - 2 × n = -3n
8 - 2n = -3n
-2n + 3n = -8
1n = -8
n = -8/1
n = -8
6) 5 - 3(2 + 2w) = -7
5 - 3 × 2 + -3 × 2w = -7
5 - 6 - 6w = -7
-1 - 6w = -7
-6w = -7 + 1
-6w = -6
w = -6/-6
w = 1
7) 5(2r + 3) - 5 = 0
5 × 2r + 5 × 3 - 5 = 0
10r + 15 - 5 = 0
10r + 10 = 0
10r = -10
r = -10/10
r = -1
8) 3 - 5(2d - 3) = 4
3 - 5 × 2d - 5 × -3 = 4
3 - 10d + 15 = 4
-10d + 15 + 3 = 4
-10d + 18 = 4
-10d = 4 - 18
-10d = -14
d = -14/-10
d = 7/5
hope this helps you!!
