30% of 250 can be written as 0.3 * 250:
0.3(250) = 75
30% of 250 is 75. Is this what you mean by "compute with percents?"
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) w <= 40 lbs
b) Do you have any bag that weigh 0 lbs or negative lbs?
We need to rewrite the inequality so that these are not there
0<= w <= 40 lbs
So 16=heads
18=tails
after you add some tails
18+x
ratio of heads to tails is 1:1.5
heads=16, didn't change
tails=18+x
so
1:1.5=16:18+x
fractionify
1/1.5=16/(18+x)
1/1.5=2/3
2/3=16/(18+x)
mutiply both sides by (3)(18+x)
2(18+x)=3(16)
36+2x=48
subtract 36 from both sides
2x=12
divide 2
x=6
6 tails added
total=heads+tails
heads=16
tails=18+6=24
total=16+24
total=40
6 tails added
40 total coins
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
When we compare positive fractions with the same numerator, the largest rational number will be the fraction with the lowest denominator
In this problem we have
and 
Both numerator are equal
Compare the denominators
therefore
is the largest rational number
