224

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a committee of six Congressmen will be selected from a group of eight Republicans and four Democrats.

= 8C3(4C3)\\= 4(56)\\\\=224

the number of ways of obtaining a committee with exactly three Republicans.

Find the percent decrease. Round to the nearest percent. From 96°F to 71°F​
barxatty [35]

Step-by-step explanation:

100% = 96

1% = 100%/100 = 96/100 = 0.96

the temperature changed by 96 - 71 = 25.

how many % are these 25 ?

we check how often 1% fits into 25.

that is done by division :

25 / 0.96 = 26.04166667 ≈ 26%

What is 3% in decimal form
AfilCa [17]
To convert a decimal into a percentage, first we have to convert it into fractional form.  

Because percentages are out of 100, the resulting fraction would be 3/100.

Next, to find the decimal, we would just divide the fraction (numerator divided by denominator).

3 % = 3/100 = 0.03
