Answer: 15%
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that a survey results of a middle school shows that 3/20 of the students played football.
The percentage of the students that play football in this schools would be calculated as multiplying the fraction by 100. This will be:
= 3/20 × 100
= 3 × 5
= 15%
Set up a proportion
EA / EB = ED/ EC
16 / (5x + 2 + 16) = 12 / (12 + 24)
16/(5x + 18) = 12 / 36 Cross multiply
16 * 36 = (4x + 18)*12 Remove the brackets
576 = 48x + 216 Subtract 216 from both sides.
360 = 48x Divide by 48
360/48 = x
7.5 = x
Subtract the 12x^2 first.
5x - 4 = 6
Add the four
5x = 10
Then divide the 5 from both sides
X = 2
