This is an easy rule to use. Whenever you have a fraction divide the numerator into the denominator to find the percentage. It's easiest to do with a calculator.
For example, 1/2 is 50%. We know that, but how did we get 50%?
1 divided by 2 is .5 All you have to do is add a zero.
1÷2=.5 ----> 50%
Now with your problem, all you have to do is apply the same rule.
1÷8= .125 Be careful though. This does NOT mean 125% This means 12.5% or if you want to round it, it's 13%. The only reason why is because wherever the number in the hundreds place is, that's where you add the decimal. This is because percentages are measured by 100.
So the answer is 12.5% because 1 ÷ 8= .125

Don,Eric, and Finn line up in random order for the cafeteria line. What is the probability that they will line up from front to

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ways they can line up is 3×2×1 = 6. Only one of these is alphabetical order. The probability that they will line up randomly in alphabetical order is 1/6.

Any of the three can line up first; either of the remaining two can line up second, and the remaining person can line up last. Thus there are 3×2×1 possible orders.

1/4 hour because since it took him 3/4 hr to milk 3 groups, it is reasonable to divide 3/4 by 3. So in 1/4 hour.

Stephen makes wooden shelves for his room he starts with a board that is 20 feet long.Stephen wants to make the shelves 3/4 foot

jek_recluse [69]

The number of shelves stephen can make is approximately 27

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that Stephen makes wooden shelves for his room

Stephen wants to make the shelves 3/4 foot long

He starts with a board that is 20 feet long

To find: number of shelves he can make

So the number of shelves stephen can make can make is found out by dividing 20 feet long board by 3/4 foot long

$\text {number of shelves }=\frac{\text { total length of board stephen has }}{\text { length of each board }}$

$\text {number of shelves }=\frac{20}{3 / 4}=\frac{20}{0.75}=26.6$

So the number of shelves stephen can make is approximately 27

Find the perimeter of the figure to the nearest hundredth.

WITCHER [35]

Perimeter: 36.84 feet

Let’s start with the easy part...all the rectangle pieces 6 x 3 = 18 feet

We know from subtracting the rectangle length (6ft) from the total length (12 ft) that the diameter of the circle is 6ft.

Circumference = diameter x pi
= 6 x 3.14 = 18.84

We have the circle split into 2 halves, but the circumference remains the same

18 + 18.84 = 36.84
