Answer:
when you have two fractions that equal each other you want to solve by using cross multiply
What cross multiply is, is when you multiply diagonally so:
8/x=14/7
you would take 14*x and 8*7
14x=56 (you would then divide each side by 14)
x=4 (14/14=1, 56/14=4)
8/4=14/7
To check your work you could simplify
8/4=2
14/7=2
2=2, which is true
x=4
Hope this helps ;)
Answer:
Rounded to the nearest integer, the test had 18 problems in all.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a student missed 10 problems on an English test and received a grade of 44%, if all the problems were of equal value, to determine how many problems were on the test the following calculation must be performed:
100 - 44 = 56
56 = 10
100 = X
100 x 10/56 = X
1,000 / 56 = X
17.85 = X
Thus, rounded to the nearest integer, the test had 18 problems in all.
The sum of all that stuff is a number from here to there
1) b. 8
2) b. 15
