Answer:
348 out of 725
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a ratio question, giving us a sample that we can use to extend the number to all students.
12/25 students play a sport so we want the value of x in x/725
So:
12/25 = x/725
Cross-Multiply:
25x = 8700
Divide by 25 to get x:
348
You can also check by dividing these ratios to see if you get the same number. In this case, you do (.48).
Answer:
84%
Step-by-step explanation:
The percentage of pink shirts
= 9/200 × 100%
= 9/2
= 4.5%
The percentage of orange shirts
= 69/600 × 100%
= 69/6
= 11.5%
The percentage of the shirts which are not pink or orange
= 1 - 4.5% - 11.5%
= 84%
<u>Alternative</u>
Find their common denominator.
9/200
= 9×3 / 200×3
= 27/600
The total percentage of shirts in pink and orange
= (27/600 + 69/600) × 100%
= 96/600 × 100%
= 16%
The percentage of the shirts which are not pink or orange
= 1 - 16%
= 84%
Separate it into two different shapes
Huh?
You forgot something.
