Answer:
$49.60
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation setup I used for this was as follows: $16 x (112/36)
Using PEMDAS, you'd start with the division part, 112/36. Although, I did this a bit differently, and being a bit further in school, I don't know if you go through this where you're at.
Start by factoring 112 into 4(28). This leaves you with 4(28)/36.
Next, cancel 4 out of 36. Since 4 is the common factor in 28 and 36, you cancel the four out of the equation, leaving you with 28/9. Convert this to its decimal form, 3.1.
Finally, take the 3.1 and multiply that by $16, which comes out to $49.60.
Answer:
204,160,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the sample is a good representation of the people from the United States.
Since there were 1,000 surveyed... and 638 of them were wearing glasses, that makes a proportion of 638 out of 1,000 people, or 63,8 / 100 people... so 63.8%... or 0.638
So, if we assume that the US population is of 320 million, how many people does that make wearing glasses.... we just have to multiply 320M by 0.638
G = 320,000,000 * 0.638 = 204,160,000

Answer:</h3>
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
If Alex cut his wire 18 times, he ended up with 19 equal pieces. He kept 7, so has 7/19 of his 1/3 of the wire.
Bob cut his wire 20 times, so ended up with 21 pieces, of which he kept 9. So he has 9/21 = 3/7 of his 1/3 of the wire.
Claudia kept 1/13 of her 1/3 of the wire, so has the smallest piece.
Bob kept (3/7)·(1/3)·126 cm = 18 cm.
Alex kept (7/19)·(1/3)·126 cm ≈ 15.47 cm.
Bob kept the longest part of the original wire.
