Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
add all of them up, Julie, 6 + 12 + 3 + 4 = 25
there are 25 total students. now divide each of the number of people that speak that language by the total students
6/25 = .24 = 24%
12/25= .45 = 48%
3/25 = .12 = 12%
4/25 = .16 = 16%
Also, if you want to just check, see if the percentages add to 100%
First, you set up the equation which would be 5y-8=3y-4.
-3y -3y
2y-8= -4
+8 +8
2y=4
divide by 2
y=2
The apple is cut into 10 pieces so each piece is 1/10 of the apple. 1/10=.1; .8=8/10 so 8 pieces are eaten. 2 pieces are left which is 2/10 of the apple which simplifies to 1/5 because 2 and 10 are both divisible by 2. 2 divided by itself is 1 and 10 divided by 2 is 5. So the amount of the apple left in simplest form of a fraction is 1/5.
