Answer:
56 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the lengths of the pieces is 3:4.
The longer piece is 32 cm.
We set up a proportion to find the length of the smaller piece.
Let the length of the smaller piece be x.
3 is to 4 as x is to 32
3/4 = x/32
4x = 3 * 32
4x = 96
x = 24
The smaller piece is 24 cm.
24 cm + 32 cm = 56 cm

Answer:
268 students are absent
Step-by-step explanation:
First, multiply 775 by (8/25) to get the number of students out from the virus (probably weren't wearing masks or 6 ft apart from each other). This gives you 248 students. You also know that an additional 20 students are out due to other reasons. Add 248 and 20 and you get a total of 268 absent students.
