Riverside Elementary School is holding a school-wide election to choose a school color. Five-eighths of the votes were for blue,

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of votes to choose a color = x

Number of votes for blue = $\frac{5}{8}\times x$

Remaining votes = x - $\frac{5}{8}\times x$

= $\frac{8x-5x}{8}\times x$

= $\frac{3}{8}\times x$

Votes for green = $\frac{5}{9}\times (\text{Remaining votes})}$

= $\frac{5}{9}\times \frac{3x}{8}$

= $\frac{5}{24}\times x$

Finally remaining votes = $\frac{3x}{8}-\frac{5x}{24}$

= $\frac{9x-5x}{24}$

= $\frac{4x}{24}$

= $\frac{x}{6}$

Since these votes are for red therefore,

$\frac{x}{6}$ = 48

x = 48×6

= 288

a) Votes for blue are $\frac{5x}{8}$

Therefore, exact number for blue votes = $\frac{5\times 288}{8}$

= 5×36

= 180

b). Votes for green = $\frac{5x}{24}$

= $\frac{5\times 288}{24}$

= 60

c). Since 25 students were absent on that day of the vote, number of students at Riverside Elementary School = 288 + 25

= 313

d). Since seven tenths of the votes for blue were made by the girls.

Therefore, number of girls voted for blue = $\frac{7}{10}\times 180$

= 7×18

= 126

Since total votes made = 288

Therefore, half of the votes made = $\frac{288}{2}$

= 144

Now it's clear that number of votes made by girls is less than half of all the votes.

e). 126 girls voted for blue.

Wittaler [7]

7 total cups of flour divided by 2.33 cups of flour needed per batch of 24 muffins equals three batches, then multiply total number of batches by number of muffins in each batch- 3x24- gives you a total of 72 muffins

$200 divided by 100 customers = 2$.

So, if he wants to make a profit of $200, he would have to make each customer pay $2. :)
