Malachai is doing a 20 miles bike ride. He has cycled 11 miles so far. What percentage of the the total distance has he cycled

1 answer:

5 0

11 miles / 20 miles =.55
.55 x 100 = 55%
11/20 is the proportion and you multiply by 100 to gey a percent
another way to solve is
11/20 x 5/5 = 55/100 = 55%
you multiply by 5/5 because it is equal to one and it makes the denominator equal to 100 it also follows the rule that whatever you do to the top you must do with the bottom

Answer:

$0.46=\frac{23}{50}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To write any decimal as a fraction you divide by 1 and multiply by a number (ranging from 10, 100, 1000 etc.) that will make 0.46 a whole number, this will explain:

Let x = $\frac{0.46}{1}$

10x = $10*\frac{0.46}{1} =\frac{4.6}{10}$

100x = $100*\frac{0.46}{1}=\frac{46}{100}$ this is our perfect fraction, now we simplify later

100x - 10x = $\frac{46}{100} -\frac{4.6}{10}$

90x = $\frac{46}{100} -\frac{4.6}{10} =0$ this is to confirm both fractions are equal

x is the same as $\frac{0.46}{1}$ as $\frac{4.6}{10}$ as $\frac{46}{100}$ but here x = $\frac{46}{100}$ because a fraction has to have no decimals.

So 0.46 is equal any of these values, as a fraction, on the other hand, it's improperly equal to $\frac{46}{100} = \frac{23}{50}$ here I divided by 2 to bring down the proper fraction. (fraction at its simplest form)

Time to paint the living room. The room measures 20 feet wide by 30 feet long by 12

chubhunter [2.5K]

The cost to paint the walls and the ceiling is $855

First, we need to find the area that will be painted.

The area of two of the walls is:

A = 20ft*12ft = 240ft²

The area of the other two walls:

A' = 30ft*12ft = 360ft²

The area of the ceiling is:

A'' = 20ft*30ft = 600ft²

We also need to subtract the areas of the two doors and the 4 windows.

Each door is 7ft by 3ft, so the area of each door is:

a = 7ft*3ft = 21ft²

Each window is 4ft by 3ft:

a' = 4ft*3ft = 12ft²

Then the total area that will be painted is:

area = 2A + 2A' + A - 2a - 4a'

area = 2*( 240ft²) + 2*(360ft²) + 600ft² - 2*(21ft²) - 4*(12ft²)

area = 1,710 ft²

We know that we need two coats of paint to cover that area, and the cost per square foot of paint is $0.25, then the total cost is:

C = $0.25*2*(1,710) = $855

The cost to paint the walls and the ceiling is $855
