we can call guest x

1/3x+5/12x+69=total guests at the wedding

if we multiply 1/3 by 4 we get 4/12. we can add 4/12 to 5/12 to get 9/12 which can be reduces to 3/4. that means the vegetarian guests make up 1/4 of the wedding. if 69 is 1/4, then we have all the information we need to solve this


25%       69                                                                                                                   -----        ------                                                                                                                       100%        ?


we are solving for the question mark. this is just a diagram. we know 25% of the 100% of the guest and we know that we have 69 of the however many guest. multiply 100 by 69

100x69=6900

now divide 6900 by 25

6900/25=276 guests at the wedding

Which of the following is a whole number that can be divided into another given
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

  (c)  Factor

Step-by-step explanation:

The constituents of a product are its factors.

Dividing a product by one of its factors will not leave a remainder.

__

A <em>term</em> is a constant or product of one or more variables and a constant. For example, -4 and 24xy are both <em>terms</em>.

A <em>multiple</em> is a product with one factor being an integer. For example, 3×1.5 = 4.5 is a <em>multiple</em> of 1.5.

A <em>variable</em> is a symbol for an unknown value. Commonly, a variable is a single letter, but may also be a blank (__) or a question mark (?). Sometimes a word or phrase is used as a variable. For example, ...

  3 + x = 5

  3 + __ = 5

  3 + ? = 5

  3 + (some number) = 5

14 is what percent of 28?
Butoxors [25]
50%. If you divide 28 by 14, (14/28), you’d get 0.5. Move the decimal place two places to the right, and that’s 50% :)
