Using equivalent ratios to find a whole \/

Shkiper50 [21]3 years ago

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

So there are 20 kids with brown hair and this represents 80% of the class total.

So this means 20=.8n since we don't know the total number of kids.

20=.8n

Divide both sides by .8

25=n

So 25 is the total number of kids.

C. is the answer

You could also setup this equation given that 80% is 80/100:

[tex]\frac{20}{\text{ total }}=\frac{80}{100}

To figure out what that total is there you can divide top and bottom of the fraction on right hand side by 4 which gives you the 20 on top and the 25 on bottom.

A rental car agency charges $240.00 per week plus $0.15 per mile to rent a car. How many miles can you travel in one week for $3
statuscvo [17]

Answer: In a week you can travel 941 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

$240+0.15m=$381

Subtract $240 on both sides:

$240-$240+0.15m=$381-$240

0.15m=$141

Divide 0.15 on both sides:

0.15m/0.15=141/0.15

m=941 miles
