If 100 students make up 40% of the 6th grade population, then 50 students make up 20% of the 6th grade population. 20% × 5 makes 100% so if your multiply 50 by 5 you'd get your population.
50 × 5 = 250 sixth-graders

Answer:

250

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this by cross-multiplication.

If one hundred sixth-grade students represent 40% of the total, you need to find the 100% so, multiply 100% by 100 students and then divide by 40% and you'll have the total sixth-grade students.

40%----100

100%--x=

X=(100*100)/40\\X=250

A group of students organized a car wash to raise money for a local charity. The students charged $5.00 for each car they washed
Gala2k [10]

The students will earn $180 by washing cars for 9 hours.

In 3 hours the students will earn...

$5 x 12 = $60

5 dollars x 12 cars = 60 dollars

So in 3 hours the group of students will earn $60

In 9 hours the students will earn...

$60 x 3 = $180

Since the students will earn $60 per every 3 hours, you multiply $60 with 3 because if you divide 9 hours by 3 hours you will get 3. The answer you get by multiplying 60 by 3 is 180. Therefore the students can earn $180 from washing cars.

I hope this helps!
