Hello,
This problem can be simply solved by putting everything into fractions. Since there's a total of 50 shirts but 35 of them are medium sized then the fraction would be 35/50. You're trying to find the percentage so the 2nd fraction would be out of 100 so it would be ?/100.
35 ?
---- = ----
50 100
Now you diagonal multiplication then downwards division.
100 x 35=3500
3500/50=70
So your answer is 70%!! :D
Hope this helps a bunch!!!
Answer && Step-by-step explanation:
7 yards == 4/4
by simple arithmetic remove 3/4 from 7 until you can no longer obtain 3/4 from it
7 => 6*1/4
6*1/4=>5*2/4
5*2/4=>4*3/4
4*3/4=>4
4=> 3*1/4
3*1/4=>2*2/4
2*2/4=>1*3/4
1*3/4=>1
1=>1/4
1/4 remains and 9 bows were made
P = 2(L + W)
P = 200
L = W + 80
200 = 2(W + 80 + W)
200 = 2(2W + 80)
200 = 4W + 160
200 - 160 = 4W
40 = 4W
40/4 = W
10 = W.........the width is 10 yds

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
L = 2,
O = 31
Step-by-step explanation:
First using the givens, write out some formulas.
Heavy equipment operators = O
General laborers = L
- O + L = 33
- 138O + 87L = 4044
Now use substitution, it doesn't matter which one you substitute.
- O = -L +33
- 138( -L + 33 ) + 87L = 4044
Distribute and solve for L.
- -138L + 4554 + 87L = 4044
- -138L - 87L = 4044 - 4554
- -225L = -510
- L = -510/-225
- L = 2
L = 2, meaning number of laborers employed is 2.
Now plug 2 = L into one of the original equations.
- O + L = 33
- O + 2 = 33
- O = 33 - 2
- O = 31
O = 31, meaning number of heavy equip. operators employed is 31.
