Answer:

160

Step-by-step explanation:

If out of 30 7th graders, 12 own a dog then when you have 400 of them, 160 will have a dog as well.

The way I did this was by 400/30: which was 13.3 repeating. I then mutliplied this number by 12, to find the final answer of 160.

You can peel 4 potatoes in 10 minutes. How long will it take you to peel 14 potatoes?
Grace [21]

It would take you 35 minutes.

Since it takes 10 minutes to peel 4 potatoes, you can assume it would take 30 minutes to peel 12 potatoes (mulitiplying both numbers by 3). Then you'd add 5, instead of 10 because you are peeling 2 more potatoes than 12, instead of peeling 4, you'd divide 10 by 2 to get half the time it would take to peel half as many potatoes. Finally, add 30 and 5 to get you final answer of 35.

I hope this helps!

A company had 2x10^5 employees in 2010. That was 2.5 times the number of employees in 1985.
professor190 [17]

So, we start by solving what the numbers are..

2x10^5 = 200000 IN 2010!

Now this is where you might get confused,  that WAS 2.5 times the number IN 1985  

So you divide 200,000 by 2.5 = 80,000


Therefore its C.
