if we take 72 as the 100%, what is 27 off of it in percentage?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 72&100\\ 27&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{72}{27}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{8}{3}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies 8x=300 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{300}{8}\implies x=\cfrac{75}{2}\implies x=37.5

Answer:

<h2>27 is 37.5% of 72.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Calcuate: what fraction of 72 is 27 and convert it to the percent:

\dfrac{27}{72}=\dfrac{27:9}{72:9}=\dfrac{3}{8}\\\\\dfrac{3}{8}\cdot100\%=\dfrac{300}{8}\%=37.5\%

Stu has 2/3 of a circular pizza left over from a party. He takes half of it as a snack and evenly splits up the rest to share wi
Mashcka [7]
B and C are correct.

A circle has 360°.  2/3 of that circle is given by
2/3(360) = 720/3 = 240°.

Stu takes half of this, so his piece will have 240/2 = 120°.

He splits the remainder of it between his 2 sisters; 240-120 = 120° left; 120/2 = 60° for each sister's piece.

Four times the lesser of two consecutive even integers is 12 less than twice the greater number. Find the integers.
pashok25 [27]
Oh, this one lol. ok
you gotta read it like its a book.
4 x s(i picked that variable) which is 4s together

4s+12 (if they said'12 less than' then the 12 gotta be adding.)
then u have to divide it so its going to look like this:

4s+12= blah blah blah
'twice the greater number' means you gotta do this: 2(s+2)

so the problem is this: 4s+12=2(s+2)

now you solved it and the answer will beeeeee s=-4

Answer:

∠RQS = 156

Step-by-step explanation:

m∠TQS = 24

∠TQS and ∠RQS are linear pair. Linear pair are two adjacent angles and their sum is 180

∠TQS + ∠RQS = 180

  24 + ∠RQS = 180

         ∠RQS = 180 - 24

        ∠RQS = 156
