not really sure, ive never done this kind of math
Hey there!
When dealing with percent word problems, the word "is" means equals. Let's see what we can do with your problem.
If the small school had 60% boys, it will have 40% girls. The number of boys <em>is</em> 48, which should equal 60% of the total, which we can model below, with t representing the total number of kids. In decimal form, 60% is 0.6.
0.6t=48
We divide both sides by 0.6.
t=80
Therefore, there are 80 total kids at the school.
We can also check our answer below.
BOYS: 0.6(80)= 48
GIRLS: 0.4(80)=32
48+32=80
I hope that this helps!
C would be the only reasonable answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a few ways to solve this but you can get the calories per ounce and then multiply that by 6
230 / 4 = 57.5 calories per ounce
57.5 * 6 = 345
Answer:
The variable representation is x, x+2 and x+4 for this sequence.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
The sum of 3 consecutive even numbers is 78.
Let,
The first even number is represented by x.
As the numbers are consecutive, thus,
First even number = x
Second even number = x+2
Third even number = x+4
Hence,
The variable representation is x, x+2 and x+4 for this sequence.
