Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of students whose favorite class is Math:

60*0.85=51

Number of students whose favorite class is Science:

15% is equal to 0.15.

60*0.15=9

Subtract number of students who like science from number of students who like math.

51-9=42

42 more students in the survey prefer math over science.

Clara created the poster shown below:
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

length=4\ cm\\width=6\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rectangular poster shown in the picture, you know that its dimensions (its width and its lenght) are:

w_1=24\ cm\\l_1=16\ cm

In order to calculate the dimensions of the rectangular  at \frac{1}{4} times its current size, you need to multiply the original lenght by \frac{1}{4} and multiply the original width by \frac{1}{4}.

Knowing this, you get:

w_2=w_1\frac{1}{4}\\\\w_2=(24\ cm)(\frac{1}{4})\\\\w_2=6\ cm\\\\\\l_2=l_1\frac{1}{4}\\\\l_2=(16\ cm)(\frac{1}{4})\\\\l_2=4\ cm

How do i show my working when trying to work out 3 1/3 divided by 4?
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing fractions, we use a rule where we keep the first number, change the sign, and flip the second number.

3 1/3 must be converted to an improper fraction before we can do this, though.

3 1/3 is 10/3 because we multiply 3 by the denominator, also 3, and then add one, so 10/3.

Now we can divide. Remember 4 is the same thing as 4/1

10/3 ÷ 4/1

Keep the first fraction the same, change the division sign into a multiplication sign, and divide by flip the second fraction.

It ends up looking like 10/3 x 1/4

Multiply: 10 x 1 and 3 x 4

It's 10/12, but we can simplify that by dividing both the top and the bottom by 2.

The final answer is 5/6

Solve the proportion to determine the value of x. <br><br> 2x / 5 = x+3 / 3
ale4655 [162]
When you solve a proportion, your first step should be to cross-multiply.

\frac{2x}{5} = \frac{x + 3}{3}

When you cross-multiply, you should get this equation:

(2x)(3) = (x + 3)(5)

Now, solve it using algebra.

(2x)(3) = (x + 3)(5)       Multiply
       6x = 5x + 15         Subtract 5x from both sides
         x = 15

The value of x is 15.
