Answer:

The plywood that is closest to three over four-inch thick is thirteen over sixteen inches thick

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

3/4 in

Verify each value

case A) 13/16 in

we know that

3/4 in=12/16 in ----> multiply by (4/4)

Find the difference

13/16-12/16=1/16 in

case B) 11/32 in

we know that

3/4 in=24/32 in ----> multiply by (8/8)

Find the difference

24/32-11/32==13/32 in

case C) 1/2 in

we know that

1/2 in=2/4 in ----> multiply by (2/2)

Find the difference

3/4-2/4=1/4 in

case D) 3/8 in

we know that

3/4 in=6/8 in ----> multiply by (2/2)

Find the difference

6/8-3/8=3/8 in

<em>Compare the values of the difference and find the less value</em>

we have

case A) 1/16=2/32 in

case B) 13/32 in

case C) 1/4=8/32 in

case D) 3/8=12/32 in

The less value is case A) 2/32 in

therefore

The plywood that is closest to three over four-inch thick is thirteen over sixteen inches thick

mel-nik [20]

Answer: he must work for at least 26.32 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of hours that Hayden works as a life guard.

Hayden earns $9.50 per hour as a lifeguard. This means that the amount that he earns for working for x hours would be

9.5x

He earns a bonus of $50.00 for taking a training course. If he takes this bonus cost, the amount that he would earn for working for x hours is

9.5x + 50

Therefore, the number of hours that he must work to earn at least $300.00 would be

9.5x + 50 ≥ 300

9.5x ≥ 300 - 50

9.5x ≥ 250

x ≥ 250/9.5

x ≥ 26.32

20 is what percent of 52
Maslowich
The process here is finding out the smallest number's % towards the largest number.

Divide 20 by 52:
20/52 = 0.38 (estimated) | This is the % in decimal form, which is 38%.

Conclusion: 20 is 38% of 52.

{---Further Elaboration for Future Reference---}

Finding the Smallest Number:

What number is 25% of 60?

Multiply 60 by the decimal form of 25%.
60 * 0.25 = 15 | 15 is 25% of 60.

Finding the Percentage. (Like what we already did.)

30 is what percent of 150?

Divide 30 by 150.
30/150 = 0.2 | 30 is 20% of 150.

Finding the Largest Number.

12 is 30% of what number?

Divide 12 by the decimal form of 30%.
12/0.3 = 40 | 12 is 30% of 40.

I hope this helps, have a great rest of your day! ^ ^
