Answer: 460 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, let the total number of students that attend I.S. 59 be represented by x.
Since we've been given the information that 230 signed up for the school picnic which was 50% of all students in the school. Then, the students in the school will be:
= 50% of x = 230
0.5 × x = 230
0.5x = 230
x = 230/0.5
x = 460
Therefore, 460 students attend the school.
Answer:
-13/20
Step-by-step explanation:
-4/5 x 4/4 = -16/20
3/20 x 1/1 = 3/20
-16/20 + 3/20 = (-16 + 3 = -13)
-13/20
Answer:
13 over 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi Jakeyriabryant! I hope you’re fine!
I hope I have understood the problem well.
If so, what the exercise raises is the following equality:
(x-1) / 5 = 2/3
From this equation you must clear the "x".
First, we pass the 5 that is dividing on the side of the x, to the other side and passes multiplying
(X – 1) / 5 = 2/3
(X – 1) = (2/3)*5
X – 1 = 10/3
Then we pass the one that is subtracting from the side of the x, to the other side and passes adding
X = 10/3 + 1
Remember that to add or subtract fractions they must have the same denominator or a common denominator (in this case we can write 1 as fraction 3/3). Then,
X = 10/3 + 3/3
X = 13/3
I hope I've been helpful!
