If you have 36 pieces of candy to share with your 4 friends, how much would each person get? (9)
Answer:
All of your choices are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
4.50 ÷ 18 = .25 each
.25 x 4 = 1.00
.25 x 36 = 9.00
12 x .25 = 3.00
This is how you solve it; but first of all convert the percent into a decimal;55%= 0.55
0.55x = 164 (divide by 0.55 on both sides)
x = 164/0.55
x = 298.18 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
so 164 is 55% of 298.18(rounded)
Answer:
850 red beads
Step-by-step explanation:
One way to do this problem is to set a proportion.
red beads/red beads = total beads/total beads
Let x = the no. of red beads in the bag
x/17 = 7500/150
x = 17(7500)/150 = 850 red beads
