3,000 people because 3/5 is 0.6, so all you have to do is multiply 5,000 by 0.6 to get 3,000. Also, 3000/5000 is like 3/5, just with more zeros. Hope I helped!

Answer:

3,000 is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

so you set it up: 3/5 = x/5000

5(x)= (3)(5000)

3 X 5,000 = 15000

15000 = 5x

divide each side by 5, 5x and 5 cancel out and (15000 /5 =3,000) that will leave you with an answer of 3,000

If n and k are positive integers, is n divisible by 6 ? (1) n = k(k + 1)(k – 1) (2) k – 1 is a multiple of 3.
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer: yes, it is

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is divisible by 6 if it is divisible by 2 and 3 simultaniously.

n = k(k+1)(k-1)

If k-1 is a multiple of 3, n is divisible by 3, so one of the requirements is ok.

Now, if k-1 is a multiple of 3, it can be even or odd.

if k-1 is even, then it is divisible by 2 and as it is divisible by 3 as well, n is divisible by 6

if k-1 is odd, then k and k+1 is even, hence, divisible by 2.

As n = k(k+1)(k-1), n is also divisible by 6.
