Proper.
Proper fractions are when the numerator (top number) is smaller then the denominator (bottom number), improper fractions being the opposite- think of 5/3, 8/5, etc.
In the fractions 5/9 and 10/20 both numerators are smaller then the denominator, making them proper fractions.
If there’s an option to simplify the numbers on the question; 5/9 would stay the same and 10/20 would turn into 1/2. Hope this helps!

The manager of a snack bar buys bottled water in packs of 35 and candy bars in packs of 20. Then, she sells the items individual

Lerok [7]

$\Huge\bf{\underline{\red \dag { Aиѕωєя }}} \red \dag$

4 Packs of water and 7 Packs of candy bars.

So, we wanna know the smallest number that both 35 and 20 will go into.

Find the Least Common Multiple (LCM), but to find the LCM we need to find the prime factorization of each of the following number :-

$\sf {35 = 5(7)}$

$\sf \red {20 = 5(4)}$

$\sf {4 = 2(2)}$

$\sf \red {20 = 5(2)(2)$

~Now multiply all the numbers by 5 :-

$\sf \pink{5(7)(2)(2) = 35(2)(2) = 70(2) = 140}$

This means she needs 140 bottles of water and 140 candybars.

Water is sold in packs of 35, this means that she needs :

$\sf \orange{ \frac{140}{35} = 4\: packs \: of \: water}$

Candy bars are sold in packs of 20, this means she needs :

$\sf \green{ \frac{140}{20} = 7 \: packs \: of \: candy \: bars}$

A school band gives a year-end concert. It is held in a 400-seat auditorium. Each concert ticket sells for $10, and 85% of the t

bazaltina [42]

Answer: $3,400

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 400 seats in the auditorium which means that there are 400 tickets to be sold.

85% of these tickets are sold. The number of tickets sold is:

= 85% * 400

= 340 tickets were sold.

Each ticket sells for a total of $10.

The amount of money made from ticket sales is therefore:

= No. of tickets sold * price of ticket

= 340 * 10

= $3,400
