Given that the ratio of children to adults is 1:4 out of 1935 people.

Determine how many more adults than children visited the library.

Work:

Divide 1935 by 5.

1935/5 = 387

So now that we have the total amount of people that visited the library per 1:4 ratio.

Then, multiply both sides by 387 to find out how many children and adults visited the library.

387 x 1 = 387

387 x 4 =  1548

That means, the exact ratio of children to adults is 387:1548.

Lastly, subtract the amount of children from the total amount of adults to find out exactly how many more adults visited the library.

1548 - 387 = 1161

Thus, 1,161 more adults visited the library than children.

We can simplify the expression by using exponent properties, and we will see that the correct option is the fourth option.

<h3>How to simplify the expression?</h3>

Remember the exponent property:

\frac{a^n}{a^m} = a^{n - m}

Here we have the expression:

\frac{83.9*10^{12}*2.87*10^{-3}}{3.76*10^2}

We can reorder this to get:

\frac{83.9*10^{12}*2.87*10^{-3}}{3.76*10^2} = \frac{83.9*2.87}{3.76}*\frac{10^{12}*10^{-3}}{10^2}

The right side can be simplified to:

\frac{83.9*2.87}{3.76}*\frac{10^{12}*10^{-3}}{10^2} = 64.04*10{12 - 3 - 2} = 64.04*10^{7}

Now, we can move the decimal point one time to the left and increase the exponent by one, so we get:

6.404*10^8

Then we conclude that the correct option is the last one (where I rounded the expression to only 3 values after the decimal point).

Find the mean median mode<br> 12,9,12,11,10,18,7,19,13,19
Nady [450]

Mean : The average of all the data in a set.

Median : The value in a set which is most close to the middle of a range.

Mode : The value which occures most frequently in a data set.

12,9,12,11,10,18,7,19,13,19

Mean = 13 (Average)

Median = 12 (Middle)

Mode = 12, 19 (most common)
