A magnet school program was set up to bring in students from all over the city. With the first 112 students, the magnet program

Galina-37 [17]

Answer

Find out the percentage of students from the north side of the city in the program .

To prove

Formula

$Percentage = \frac{Part\ value\times 100}{Total\ value}$

As given

A magnet school program was set up to bring in students from all over the city. With the first 112 students .

the magnet program had 50% from the south side of town, 12.5% from the north side l, and 37.5% from the east side.

12 .5 % is written in the decimal form.

$= \frac{12.5}{100}$

= 0.125

North side student be = 0.125 × 112

= 14

As given

If 6 more student from the north side and 2 students from the west side side enrolled in the program .

than north side student becomes = 14 + 6

= 20

Total number of student becomes = 112 + 6 + 2

= 120

put in the above formula

$Percentage =\frac{20\times100}{120}$

$Percentage =\frac{2000}{120}$

= 16.66% (approx)

Therefore 16.66% (approx) students from the north side of the city in the program .

Bob traveled 90 miles which was 83 1 3 % of his trip.<br> a<br> How long was the trip?

loris [4]

Total journey of bob was 108 miles .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , Bob traveled 90 miles which was 83 1 3 % of his trip. We need to find How long was the trip .Let's find out:

According to question , Bob has traveled a distance of :

⇒ $Distance = 90miles$

Which is $83\frac{1}{3}\%$ of his journey . So , Let total miles be x , So we have following equation framed according to question as :

⇒ $\frac{83\frac{1}{3} x}{100} =90$

⇒ $\frac{83\frac{1}{3} x}{100}(100) =90(100)$

⇒ $\frac{83(3)+1}{3} x=90(100)$

⇒ $\frac{250}{3} x=9000$

⇒ $x=9000(\frac{3}{250} )$

⇒ $x=108miles$

Therefore , Total journey of bob was 108 miles .

Nicole is playing a video game where each round lasts \dfrac{7}{12} 12 7 start fraction, 7, divided by, 12, end fraction of an

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

45/7 rounds

6 3/7 rounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the full question

Nicole is playing a video game where each round lasts 7/12 fraction of an hour. She has scheduled 3 3/4 fraction hours to play the game. How many rounds can Nicole play? rounds

Number of rounds she can play = total time she has scheduled / length of each round

length of each round = 7/12

total time she has scheduled = 3 3/4

3 3/4 ÷ 7/12

3 3/4 x 12/7

convert to the total time scheduled to an improper fraction

to convert to improper fraction, take the following steps :

Multiply the whole number (3) by the denominator (4) = 3x 4 = 12
Add the numerator to the answer gotten in the previous step = 14 + 3 = 15
divide the number gotten in the previous step by the denominator = 15/4

$\frac{15}{4}$ × $\frac{12}{7}$ = $\frac{45}{7}$ rounds or $6\frac{3}{7}$ rounds
