The percentage of the yellow gumdrops is 21.621...%

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Orange gumdrops = 17 , Yellow gumdrops = 8 and Black gumdrops = 12

So, the total gumdrops = 17 + 8 + 12 = 37

Percentage of yellow gumdrops <em>= [(Yellow gumdrops) / (Total gumdrops)] × 100% </em>

So, the percentage = \frac{8}{37}* 100 = \frac{800}{37}= 21.621...%

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we can infer from the information given that:

5 eclaires boxes = 1 free eclaires box.

Therefore, to get the number of eclaires boxes that the kids will get if they bring 77 eclaires boxes, we have to divide 77 by 5 and this will be:

= 77 / 5

= 15.4

= 15

The group of kids will receive 15 free boxes

Which expression is equivalent to  4 7/8 ÷ 4 1/4​
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Improper fraction: 39/34

Proper fraction: 1 5/34

Decimal: 1.147 (rounded to the nearest thousandths).

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve each expression given, if it has the same result, then the expressions is equivalent. Solve the given expression:

4 7/8 ÷ 4 1/4

First, change all fractions into improper fractions:

4 7/8 = (4 * 8)/8 + 7/8 = 32/8 + 7/8 = 39/8

4 1/4 = (4 * 4)/4  + 1/4 = 16/4 + 1/4 = 17/4

Next, find common denominators. Note that what you do to the denominator, you must do the numerator:

(17/4) * (2/2) = (34/8)

39/8 ÷ 17/4

Solve. First, change the division sign into multiplication, and then flip the second fraction:

39/8 ÷ 17/4 = 39/8 x 4/17

Multiply straight across:

39/8 x 4/17 = (39 x 4)/(8 x 17) = 156/136 = 39/34 (simplified), or 1 5/34.
