Answer: 25%
Step-by-step explanation: So first make the number of people who ran the marathon and the number of people who finished the marathon into a ratio
1200:4800
then make that into a fraction, 1200/4800
then make the percent of people who reached the marathon into a fraction, using 100 as the denominator and a variable as the numerator.
for example. p/100 (p, represents the percent)
then cross multiply.
1200x100=1200000
Last divide 1200000 by 4800 to get 25%.
Let's get the data out of the problem:
Nv = 18
Ov = 12
Now, we can apply in this equation that relates the new and the old values:
i = Nv / Ov
i = 18 / 12
i = 1.5
Now, we just consider what has passed from 1, and this is 0.5, converting to percentage it is:
p = 0.5 . 100
p = 50%
The increase was 50%.
Hope it helps.
Answer:
9/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 + 3/4 + 5/6 + 4/8 + 3/12 + 3/2 =
= 16/24 + 18/24 + 20/24 + 12/24 + 6/24 + 36/24
= 108/24
= 54/12
= 9/2
50 tens
5000 thousands
50000 ten thousand
50 tens
5
Hope this helps
