Answer:
20 students
Step-by-step explanation:
If the class decreased by 15%, the students that she has now (17) represents a percentaje of:
100% - 15% = 85%
so<u> the 17 students are 85% of what she had</u>:
Students Percentage
17 ⇒ 85%
and we are looking for how many students she had 2 years ago, thus we are looking for the <u>100%</u> of students (the original number of studens). If we represent this number by x:
Students Percentage
17 ⇒ 85%
x ⇒ 100%
and we solve this problem using the <u>rule of three</u>: multiply the cross quantities on the table( 17 and 100) and then divide by the remaining amount (85):
x = 17*100/85
x = 1700/85
x=20
2 years ago she had 20 students
Answer:
Claire traveled for 9 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total Distance traveled = 701 miles
Distance traveled each day = 80 miles
Distance traveled on last day = 61 miles
We need to find the number of days Claire traveled.
Solution:
Let the number of days Claire traveled be denoted by 'd'.
Now we can say that;
Total Distance traveled is equal to sum of Distance traveled each day multiplied by number of days and Distance traveled on last day.
framing in equation form we get;
Now Subtracting both side by 61 using Subtraction Property of Equality we get;
Now Dividing both side by 80 we get;
Hence Claire traveled 80 miles in 8 days and 61 miles on last day making of total <u>9 days</u> of travel.
Step-by-step explanation:
let the number be x
and according to question,
six + 2 times a number = 2x + 6
26 + 6 times a number = 6x + 26
→ 2x + 6 = 6x + 26
→ -6x + 2x = 26 - 6
→ -4x = 20
→ x = 20/4 = 5
→ x = 5
therefore, the number is 5.
hope this answer helps you dear...take care and may u have a great day ahead!
