Hi there!

In order to answer your question, you'll need to use the cross product method (let's say that Newtons = N):

9N on Earth = 2N on Namar

400N on Earth = xN on Namar

(2 × 400) ÷ 9 = xN on Namar

800 ÷ 9 = xN on Namar

88.888.. = xN on Namar


Since your answer must be to the nearest Newton, I'm guessing that you need to round your answer to the nearest whole number. This means that since the number in the tenths column is more than 5 (could also be equal to 5), you need to round the number up.


88.888... rounded to the nearest whole number = 89


Your answer is: The girl weigh 89 newtons on Namar.


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

a gym has 275 members 40% are bronze members 28% are silver members the rest are good work out the gold members
statuscvo [17]
STEP 1:
Find % of gold members. Subtract the known % of bronze and silver members from 100%.

x= percent of gold members

x= 100% - (40% +28%)
x= 100% - 68%
x= 32% percent of gold members


STEP 2:
Find number of gold members. Multiply % of gold members by the total numbers of members (275).

x= # of gold members

x= 275 * 32%
x= 275 * 0.32
x= 88 gold members

Hope this helps! :)

Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth (if necessary).
ddd [48]
The distance between the two points should be 9/4 if I did my math correct. This is because if you have 4 - (-5) over -3 - (-7) then you would get 9/4.
