Answer:
16%
Step-by-step explanation:
20/125 = 0.16
0.16 x 100 = 16% (multiply by 100 to get a percentage)
The value of the 24th term is 16.
<h3>Arithmetic progression:</h3>
where
a = first term
d = common difference
n = number of terms
Therefore,
6 = a + 3d
8 = a + 7d
let's find a and d
2 = 4d
d = 2 / 4
d = 1 / 2
6 = a + 3 / 2
a = 6 - 3 /2
a = 4.5
Therefore, the 24th term can be found as follows;
24th term = 4.5 + 23(0.5)
24th term = 4.5 + 11.5
24th term = 16

(b)+(b+45)=215
b = # of boys
there are 45 more girls than boys and 215 students total.
minus 45 on both sides leaving you with
(b)+(b)=170
combine like terms leaving you with
2b=170
divide both sides by 2
b=85
there were 85 boys
85+45=130
(the 45 for the # of girls more than boys)
there were 130 girls.
