<h3>Given</h3>
  • 40% of work week is 16 hours
<h3>Find</h3>
  • hours in work week
<h3>Solution</h3>

Write the given information as an equation.

... 0.40 × (work week) = 16 hours

Divide by the factor you don't want (0.40).

... (work week) = (16/0.40) hours

... work week = 40 hours

_____

40% means 40/100 (forty hundredths) or 0.40 (forty hundredths). (The % symbol is a shorthand way to write /100.)

So 20% is 1/5 as a percent.

So 1/5 multiplied by 5 equals 5/5, or 1.

So if 1/5 = 6, then 6 multiplied by 5, or 30, must equal 5/5, or 1.

So the total number of dolls in Amyia's doll collection is 30.

I need help! I forgot how to do this!! Please help!
Dovator [93]

First change the mixed fraction into an improper fraction

7 1/2 = 15/2

Next, change multiply 2 to both numerator and denominator

15 x 2 = 30

2 x 2 = 4

30/4

Each piece needs 3/4 of an inch. Divide 30 with 3

30/3 = 10

c) 10 pieces is your answer

hope this helps
