Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total pass = 65 * number of student that passed, let it be be represented by P and number of students that failed F

Total pass = 65p

And total fail = 35F

For the total pass and failure will be 53(P+F)

Equating to total pass and total fail

65P +35F = 53( P+ F)

65P+35F = 53P+ 53F

65P-53P =53F-35F

12P=18F

2P= 3F

Hence there are 3 passing scores for every 2 failure scores, hence there are a multiple of 5 scores and the same multiple of 3 passing scores.

3/5 * 100= 60%

Given that <span>Jack rakes the yard in 5 hours and Jill rakes the yeard in 8 hours. Let the amount of time that it takes them to rake the yard together be t, then:

\frac{1}{t} = \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{8}  \\  \\ = \frac{8+5}{40} = \frac{13}{40}  \\  \\ \therefore t= \frac{40}{13} =3 \frac{1}{13}\ hours</span>
