Answer: 1733.33 ≈ 1734 applicants

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of job applicants being looked at.

If 25% of applicants become job candidates, then number of job candidates = 0.25x

If 20% of job candidates receive job offers, then the number of job offers = 0.20 × 0.25x = 0.05x

If 75% of job offers are accepted, then number of accepted recruits = 0.75 × 0.05x = 0.0375x

This 0.0375x shows the number of new recruits which is equivalent to the 65 that is needed by the client if the recruiter.

By equating this 0.0375x to 65,we have:

0.0375x = 65

x = 65/0.0375

x= 1733.33 applicants, for whole number sake because we're dealing with humans, we approximate to 1734

Convert the decimal to a fraction in simplest form:
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Decimal 0.333 to a fraction in simplest form is:   \frac{333}{1000}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the decimal

0.333

Multiply and divide by 10 for every number after the decimal point.

There are three digits to the right of the decimal point, therefore multiply and divide by 1000.

Thus,

0.333=\frac{0.333\cdot \:\:1000}{1000}

         =\frac{333}{1000}         ∵ 0.333×1000 = 333

Let us check if we can reduce the fraction \frac{333}{1000}

For this, we need to find a common factor of 333 and 1000 in order to cancel it out.

But, first, we need to find the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of 333, 1000

<u>Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) : </u>

The GCD of a, b is the largest positive number that divides both a and b without a remainder.

Prime Factorization of 333:      3 · 3 · 37

Prime Factorization of 1000:      2 · 2 · 2 · 5 · 5 · 5

As there is no common factor for 333 and 1000, therefore, the GCD is 1.

Important Tip:

  • As GCD is 1, therefore the fraction can not be simplified.

Therefore, decimal 0.333 to a fraction in simplest form is:   \frac{333}{1000}
