60 more students voted for Kevin

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

total students = 300

Voted for Jennifer = 40%

Voted for Kevin = 60%

We will find number of students for one of them and then will subtract from total to find the others.

So,

Students who voted for Jennifer:

$= 40\%\ of\ 300\\=0.40*300\\=120\ students$

Students who voted for Kevin

= $=Total\ students-Students\ who\ voted\ for\ Jennifer\\=300-120\\=180\ students$

In order to calculate that how many more students voted for Kevin :

180-120 = 60

Hence,

60 more students voted for Kevin

Kevin bought 3 dvds for 45.99 how much would 7 dvds cost?

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

I am pretty sure the answer would be $107.31. Sorry if I'm wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you take the total of the 3 DVD's (45.99) and you divide that by 3 (number of DVD's) to get 15.33 which is called the unit price. Then, you take your unit price and multiply that by how many items you are going to buy.

45.99 / 3 = 15.33

15.33 x 7 = 107.31
