Percentage of students that are girls in the class = 60%
Number of girls in the class = 18
Let us assume the total number of students in the class = x
Then
60% * x = 18
(60/100) * x = 18
6x/10 = 18
6x = 18 * 10
6x = 180
x = 180/6
   = 30
So the total number of students in the class is 30.
Number of boys in the class = 30 - 18
                                               = 12
So there are 12 boys in the class. I hope the procedure is simple enough for you to understand.

60% are girls, there are 18 girls in the class. How many boys?

This is quite easy to understand. 

6x/10 = 18
6x/10 *10 = 18*10 
6x = 180
x = 30

Now, thats the total, subtract by the girls. 
30-18 = 12

Answer: 12

if there are 300 calories in 100 g of a certain food, how many calories are there in a 30 g portion of food​
kap26 [50]

Answer:

90 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Calories : quantity of food

there are 300 calories in 100 g of a certain food

300 calories : 100 g food

how many calories are there in a 30 g portion of food​

Let x = number of calories

x calories : 30 g food

Equate both ratios

300 calories : 100 g food = x calories : 30 g food

300/100 = x/30

300 * 30 = 100 * x

9000 = 100x

x = 9000/100

x = 90

x = number of calories = 90 calories

-4 1/2 divided by - 2 2/3 as a mixed number
podryga [215]

Answer:

Exact Answer is 27/16

Decimal form: 1.6875

Mixed fraction 1 11/16    I assume that's what you need.

Step-by-step explanation:

27/16

Divide 27 by 16:

1 | 6 | 2 | 7

16 goes into 27 at most one time:

| | | 1

1 | 6 | 2 | 7

| - | 1 | 6

| | 1 | 1

Read off the results. The quotient is the number at the top and the remainder is the number at the bottom:

| | | 1 | (quotient)

1 | 6 | 2 | 7 |  

| - | 1 | 6 |  

| | 1 | 1 | (remainder)

The quotient of 27/16 is 1 with remainder 11, so:

Answer:  1 11/16

Please help me!! I don’t know how to do this

If you look at the rectangle properly, you can see that the diagonal creates two triangles, and if we only focus on one triangle, we can see that the bad of the triangle is 7 and the perpendicular height is 4

Using Pythagorean theorem we can figure out the hypotenuse, or the diagonal
C squared is equal to a squared plus b squared

7^2+4^2 is 65

Square root of 65 is 8.1
