approximately 3 people out of every 25 are left handed about how many people would you expect in a group of 140 people

1 answer:

7 0

Okay so 3/25 (OF) 140 you'd have to do 140 divided by 25 then times that answer by 3. 140 divided by 25 = 5.6. 5.6 x 3 = 16.8. You can't have 16.8 people so you round it which makes it 17 people.

$\frac{|DC|+|AB|}{2}=|LM|\\\\|AB|=x+8;\ |LM|=4x+3;\ |DC|=187\\\\substitute:\\\\\frac{187+x+8}{2}=4x+3\ \ \ \ /\cdot2\\\\195+x=8x+6\ \ \ /-195;\ /-8x\\\\-7x=-189\ \ \ /:7\\\\\underline{\underline{x=27}}$
