What is 8/10 minus 1/2?

1 answer:

8 0

8/10-1/2
You need to find a common denominator and that would be 20.
You need to do 8*2=16 to find the first numerator.
Then 10*1=10 to find the second one, so far we have
16/20 - 10/20
Then we keep the first fraction change the signto multiply and flip the second fraction to give:
16/20*20/10
The things that are diagonal to each other we can simplify. For example 20÷20=1
Fraction simplified:
8/1 multiply 1/5
Then we multiply 8 and 1 to give 8 and 5 and 1 to give 5.
The final fraction is 8/5.
If you want it as an improper fraction then it would be 1 whole and 3/5

The school chorus has 52 students which represents 26% of the seventh graders. How many students are in the seventh grade

barxatty [35]

Answer:

There are 200 students in the seventh grade.

Step-by-step explanation:

For equations like these, you have to use the is/of formula, which is:

Percent/100 = is/of.

Since you are trying to find how many students are in the seventh grade, this means that 52 is 26% of the total amount of students in the seventh grade. So, the formula would look like so:

26/100 = 52/n.

Next, you have to cross multiply, which means you would multiply 26 by n, and 52 by 100.

Then, you are going to have this left over from the cross multiplying:

5200 = 26n.

Divide 26 on both sides, leaving you with:

1n = 200, or n = 200.
