15 is 25% of what number

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sergio [31]3 years ago
3 0
<span>The answer is 60. Let x be the number we are looking for. So x is 100% and we know that 15 is 25%. Make a proportion: x : 100% = 15 : 25%. Cross the products: x * 25% = 15 * 100%. x * 25% = 1500%. x = 1500% : 25%. x = 60. Thus, 60 is 100%, and 15 is 25% of 60. </span>

Please help! really needing help solve the problem
guapka [62]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

By Basic proportionality theorem:

\frac{10}{8}  =  \frac{3x - 6}{12}  \\  \\  \frac{10 \times 12}{8}  = 3x - 6 \\  \\  \frac{120}{8}  = 3x - 6 \\  \\ 15 = 3x - 6 \\ 15 + 6 = 3x \\ 21 = 3x \\  \frac{21}{3}  = x \\ 7 = x \\  \\  \huge \red { \boxed{x = 7}}

What is the weight per cm? ​
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

  2/5 g/cm

Step-by-step explanation:

When you want to know "A per B", divide the given quantity of A by the corresponding quantity of B. ("Per" essentially means "divided by".)

It can be convenient to choose table values that make the division easy:

  12 g/(30 cm) = 4/10 g/cm = 0.4 g/cm

  20 g/(50 cm) = 2/5 g/cm . . . . . . . . . . . . . same as 0.4 g/cm
