Answer:
20 each girl
Step-by-step explanation:
40 divided by 2 girls is 20
I honestly don't know any of this so
Answer:
a = 30
b = 40
C
Step-by-step explanation:
This requires that you use a proportion.
a / (a + 15) = 40 / 60
The small triangle's sides are in proportion to the large triangles sides.
Reduce the right. Divide top and bottom by 20
a/(a + 15) = 40/20 // 60/20
a/(a + 15) = 2/3
Cross multiply
3a = 2(a + 15) Remove the brackets on the right.
3a = 2a + 30
Subtract 2a from both sides
3a-2a = 30
a = 30
Find B
b is done exactly the same way.
b/(b+20) = 2/3
3b = 2b + 40
3b - 2b = 40
b = 40
The decrease is (95-68) = 27 .
As a fraction, the decrease is 27/95 of the original amount.
To change any fraction to a decimal, do the division:
(27) divided by (95) = 0.2842...
To change any decimal to a percentage, move the
decimal point two places that ==> way:
0.2842... = 28.42... %
Arrange from smallest to largest
-25, -12/4, 1/5, 18/5, 10
chose the middle number
1/5
