At a company meeting, there were 996 people in attendance. 25% of them were managers. How many managers were in the meeting?
nalin [4]

They are asking for managers so 996 of them are there, 25% are managers

Change the percent to a decimal (divide the percent number by 100)

You get 0.25

So multiply 996 by 0.25

You get 249

So there are <u>249 managers at the meeting</u>

Simplify 12edf – 13def. State a property that you can use.
Anna [14]

Answer:

-def. In multiplication, the order doesn't matter.

Step-by-step explanation:

A crucial property you can use to simplify this is the fact that, in multiplication, order doesn't matter.

3 * 2 = 6

2 * 3 = 6

5 * 2 * 3 = 30

2 * 3 * 5 = 30

3 * 2 * 5 = 30

Thus,

edf, or

e * d * f

is the same as def,

d * e * f

e * d * f = d * e * f

edf = def

Thus, 12edf is the same as 12def. We can put this in our expression:

12edf - 13def

12def - 13def

Now, we can see that this will equal -1def or -def

12def - 13def

-1def

-def

Answer: -def. In multiplication, the order doesn't matter.
