You need to use this equation:
part of the whole = percentage x whole (simpler, it is a=pw)
In this case, it would be
320 = p x 750
Because p is the percentage we are trying to find.
You would then divide both sides by 750 to isolate p.
320 divided by 750 is 0.4266, and rounding to the nearest tenth it would be 0.43. Now your equation is
0.43 = p
To make it a percentage you move the decimal to the right two times. That makes your equation
43 =p
So 43% of the people at the football game are not students.

To do this problem you use is/of=percent/100
So:
320/750=x/100
cross multiply 
32,000=750x
divide both sides by 750
x=42.66 repeating

ANSWER: X=42.66 REPEATING

There were 287 music books and 134 science books in the store. After some books were sold there are 159 books left. How many boo
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

262 books sold

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a very vague word problem, but if it truly is just asking the amount of books sold (regardless of music or science), here's how to get the answer:

1. 287+134=421 - first you want to add together the two types of books to get the total amount of books in the store

2. 421-x=159 - create an equation and solve.

3. -x=-262 - follow order of operations and subtract 421 on both sides in order to isolate the variable

4. x=262 - divide each side by -1 to make the variable positive.

If you'd like an easier way, you can just:

1. 421-159=262 - it's easier, but my math teacher would count us wrong if we didn't do equations a specific way. Good luck!

The ratio of the number of A's in the class to B's in the class was 2:5. How many people got A's if there were 40 people who got
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

16 students got an A

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation to compare the ratio to the scores:

\frac{2}{5} = \frac{x}{40}

Cross multiply:

80 = 5x

Divide each side by 5:

x = 16

Now, check if \frac{16}{40} = \frac{2}{5}

16/8 = 2

40/8 = 5

The ratios are the same! Therefore, 16 students got an A!

Hope this helps! Feel free to contact me if you have any questions :)

A≈21.46
First you find the area of the square

A=a^2 which is
=10^2
A=100

Then you find the area of the circle
A=πr^2
= π(5)^2
A≈78.54

Now you subtract the 78.54 from 100 to get 21.46
