Answer: 175% of 8000 is equal to 14000.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that to convert a percentage into fraction or decimal , we divide it by 100 .

Also, if find x% of y , then on next step we change '%' sign by $\dfrac{1}{100}$ and 'of ' by Multiply sign (x).

Given problem : 175% of 8000

which can be re-written as: $\dfrac{175}{100}\times8000$

$=\dfrac{175\times80}{1}\\\\=14000$ (On solving)

i.e. on solving 175% of 8000, we get 14000

Therefore, 175% of 8000 is equal to 14000.

Answer:

Part 1: 43.75%

Part 2: 44.07%

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

(Pt.1) First, set up a ratio $210/480$ . Next, you use long division I got the percent 43.75. After that, you subtract 6 from the girls group, (because of them moving away and then more coming back.) and 2 from the boys group. Then, you subtract those from the school "population" and you get 472 as the final population. So then you set up another ratio, $208/472$ . I got a percent of 44.07% from that.
