Kathleen must get 300 signatures to make sure she will have enough valid signatures for the crosswalk

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Kathleen needs 240 valid signatures on a petition to get a crosswalk installed on her street

She knows  that about 20% of the signatures will not be valid for a variety of reasons

Let "x" be the number of signatures

invalid signature = 20 % of x

valid signatures = 240

Then, according to question,

total number of signatures - invalid signatures = 240

x - 20 % of x = 240

x - 20 \% \times x = 240\\\\x - \frac{20}{100} \times x = 240\\\\x - 0.2x = 240\\\\0.8x = 240\\\\x = 300

Therefore, she must get 300 signatures so that she will have enough valid signatures for the crosswalk

I have no clue what to do please help
Alborosie
The easiest way to solve this is to convert all of the values to a decimal value, and then order the numbers as you normally would.


1/5=0.2
-4.06
10/5=2
-4.30

Now that we know the decimal values, we can simply place them from least to greatest. -4.30, -4.06, 1/5, 10/5 is the correct order.
