Answer: Look at it this way, you are adding 4.2, .5 times. So if you find what 1.5 is of 4.2 you then add that to 4.2. The 1 stands for how many times the number is being multiplied by. So in this case the number is only being multiplied once. Then we move onto the decimal point which says that the number is being multiplied by .5 times. This means that 2.1 (which is half of 4.2) is being added onto 4.2. Hope this makes sense. I always use a calculator for multiplying so its hard to put the process into words haha.
Step-by-step explanation:
I think the answer would be the first one
So basically the x will want to be singled out and 3/2-y=the variable
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the photo of the construction you needed
55% of 1800 = 0.55(1800) = 990...so there are 990 girls in the school
30% of 990 = 0.30(990) = 297...so there are 297 girls who take the bus
