Let the total number of questions in the math test be defined by the variable x.
Now, we know that Parker correctly answered 35 questions. These 35 questions make 70% of the total number of questions on his math test.
The information we have above can be expressed as an equation given below:
70% of x=35
This can be rewritten as:
Thus, to find the total number of questions we will have to isolate x.
Therefore, there were a total of 50 questions in the math test.
#22. We are given that y = 1/4. So, we want to plug this value into the expression 15/y:
15/(1/4)
When you divide by a fraction, you should follow the rule “flip the guy and multiply”. Basically, 15/(1/4) = 15 * 4 = 60.
The answer for #22 is (D).
#23. We can use a proportion:
(The shaded area)/(entire circle area) = (360 - 60)/360
But, we don’t have to find the areas of the region and circle; we can just solve the fraction:
(360 - 60)/360 = 300/360 = 30/36 = 5/6
The answer for #23 is (A).
The composite number is A.63. 1 is neither a prime or composite. 19 is a prime. 0 is a trick honestly, it isn't a prime or a composite
I can try how do I help you ?
