You would have to find 55 % of 400

$\frac{x}{400} = \frac{55}{100}$
Find X
100x / 400 = 55
100x = 55 X 400
100x = 22000
x = 220

Simply -3 3/4 divided by 2 1/2

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

$=-1\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

$-3\frac{3}{4} \div2\frac{1}{2}$

In order to find the answer, we first convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions. Then we use KCF (Keep, Change, Flip) and solve.

$-3\frac{3}{4} \div2\frac{1}{2}$
$-3\frac{3}{4} =12+3=-\frac{15}{4}$
$2\frac{1}{2}=2\times2=4+1=\frac{5}{2}$
$-\frac{15}{4} \div\frac{5}{2}$
$-\frac{15}{4} \times\frac{2}{5}$
$15\times2=30$
$4\times5=20$
$=-\frac{30}{20}$
$-\frac{30}{20} \div10=-\frac{3}{2}$
$-\frac{3}{2}=3\div2=-1\frac{1}{2}$
$=-1\frac{1}{2}$

Hope this helps.
