Answer:
9/16
Step-by-step explanation:
First, note that 10000 multiplied by .5625 will get rid of the decimal point. Therefore, make a fraction where the numerator is .5625 times 10000 and denominator is 10000 like this:
.5625 x 10000
10000
Next, multiply the numbers in the numerator together and keep the denominator as is. Now our fraction looks like this:
5625
/10000
The greatest common factor of 5625 and 10000 is 625, which means you can divide the numerator and denominator by 625 and keep the same value:
5625 ÷ 625
/10000 ÷ 625
And when calculating the numerator and denominator in our fraction above, we get .5625 as a fraction in the simplest form possible:
.5625 =
9
/16
Multiplication was invented to reduce the work involved in repeated addition.
... 88 + 88 + 88 + 88 = 4×88 = 352
352 passengers are carried <em>to</em> the island each day.
_____
Some questions must be answered before we can give a definite answer.
1. If the same person rides twice, are they counted twice?
2. Are passengers on the return trips (<em>from</em> the island) counted?
3. If return trip passengers are counted, is the ferry full on those trips?
4. Does every passenger to the island return the same day?
5. Does any passenger go to the island more than once per day?
It would be a 2:1 ratio because sides AC and DF are 8:4 which simplifies to 2:1

Answer:
76.8
Step-by-step explanation:
1. We assume, that the number 31.25 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 31.25, so we can write it down as 100%=31.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 24 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=24.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=31.25
2) x%=24
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=31.25/24
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
7. Solution for 24 is what percent of 31.25
100%/x%=31.25/24
(100/x)*x=(31.25/24)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3020833333333*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3020833333333) to get x
100/1.3020833333333=x
76.8=x
x=76.8
now we have:
24 is 76.8% of 31.25
