Answer: C) 12

Step-by-step explanation:

4:3= 4 boys per 3 girls

16: x= 16 boys to x girls

Since Sean wants there to be 16 boys, he has to divide 16 boys by the ratio of 4.

You will get 4, and now you multiply 4 by the ratio of 3 girls.

In other words, 4 times 3 is 12, so he will need 12 girls to go to his party to keep a 4:3 ratio.

Hope this helped!

A cake that costs $32 is on sale for 15% off and there are no taxes. Explain why the expression
Darya [45]

Answer:

$27.2

Step-by-step explanation:

A cake that costs $32 is on sale for 15% off and there are no taxes. Explain why the expression (0.85).32 represents the final price of the cake in dollars.

This is explained in the calculation below

= A cake that costs $32 is on sale for 15% off

The amount off the cake is calculated as

= 15% of $32

= 15/100 × 32

= $4.8

The amount he is paying for the cake =>$32 - $4.8

= $27.2

The above expression is obtained as

(0.85).32

= (100% - 15%) × 32

=( 1 - 0.15) × 32

= 0.85 × 32

= $27.2

The final price of the cake = $27.2
