Assume the length of the ribbon was X
after tieing the parcel , the reminder is X - 3/8 = 5/8 X
Rebecca used 1/5 of the reminder, so the remainder of the remainder is 4/5 of the remainder = (4/5) * (5/8X) = 24 cm
                  20/40X = 24
So X = 48 cm

There are 5 green jelly beans, 7 red jelly beans and 8 yellow jelly beans. What percent of the jelly beans are red?
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

8 + 5 + 7 = 20

50% = 10

25% = 5

10% = 2

5% = 1

25% + 10% = 5+2

35% = 7

Use the information in the figure. If F=116, find E<br><br> 58<br> 32<br> 116<br> 64
My name is Ann [436]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

  • m∠F = 116°

We have to find the value of m∠E.

Here, two sides are equal, thus it is an isosceles triangle. As the two sides are equal, so their angles must be equal. So, ∠E and ∠D will be equal. Let us assume the measures of both ∠E and ∠D as x.

→ Sum of all the interior angles of ∆ = 180°

→ ∠E + ∠D + ∠F = 180°

→ 116° + x + x = 180°

→ 2x = 180° – 116°

→ 2x = 64°

→ x = 64° ÷ 2

→<u> x = 32°</u>

Henceforth,

→ m∠E = x

→ m∠E = 32°

Find the perimeter use pi
balandron [24]
Since d x pi = circumference
I use 3.14 as pie

I did 9 x pi = 28.26 I DID NOT divide this by two because there are three half circles and 28.26 counts as two of them

Since there is another half circle I divide 28.26 by 2

28.26 + 14.13 = 42.39

Now plus the bottom length

42.39 + 9 = 51.39
