Answer: 175 robberies

Step-by-step explanation:

Robberies last year= 243

Robberies has reduced by 28% which means there are (100-28)% = 72% robberies this year.

Number of robberies this year= 72% of 243 = 72/100 × 243 = 174.96 = 175.

There are 175 robberies this year

Answer: 175

Step-by-step explanation:

The original number of robberies = 243

It has been reduced by 28% , to find the present number of robberies , all we need do is to find 72% of 243. That is

72% x 243

= 0.72 x 243

= 174.96

Therefore , the number of robberies this year to the nearest whole number will be 175

7. Marco is making beaded bracelets. Each
stiks02 [169]

One way to find the least common multiple of two numbers is to first list the prime factors of each number.

8 = 2 x 2 x 2

Then multiply each factor the greatest number of times it occurs in either number. If the same factor occurs more than once in both numbers, you multiply the factor the greatest number of times it occurs.

2: three occurrences

3: one occurrence

So, our LCM should be

2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 24.

So, Marco can buy, at the very least, 24 beads of each color to have equal colors of beads.

 Suppose you have a bag with 20 letter tiles in it and 7 of the tiles are the letter Upper Y. If you pick a letter tile at rando
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is expressed as

Number of favorable outcomes/number of total outcomes

Considering the first bag, the probability that you pick a letter that is Upper Y is 7/20 = 0.35

Converting to percentage, it becomes

0.35 × 100 = 35%

Considering the second bag, the probability that you pick a letter that is Upper Y is 240/500 = 0.48

Converting to percentage, it becomes

0.48 × 100 = 48%

Therefore, you are more likely to pick a tile that is the Upper Y letter from the second bag.
