The state of New Jersey makes approximately $1.55 billion annually from tolls of the $1.55 billion about 3/4 comes from tolls on

Rama09 [41]

Percent of turn pike is 75% and percent of parkway is 25%.

Solution:

Given, The state of New Jersey makes approximately $1.55 billion annually from tolls of the $1.55 billion

About $\frac{3}{4}$ comes from tolls on the turnpike

Remaining $\frac{1}{4}$ comes from tolls on the parkway

To find the percent of the total revenue from turnpike:

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { Percent of turnpike }=\frac{\text { amount from parkway }}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{\frac{3}{4} \text { of total revenue }}{\text { tot al revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{\frac{3}{4} \times \text { total revenue }}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{3}{4} \times 100=3 \times 25=75 \%}\end{array}$

To find the percent of the total revenue from parkway:

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { Percent of parkway }=\frac{\text { amount from parkway }}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{\frac{1}{4} \text { of total revenue }}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{\frac{1}{4} \times \text { total revenue}}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{1}{4} \times 100=25 \%}\end{array}$

Summarizing the results:

Percent of turn pike is 75%

Percent of parkway is 25%

the numbers of girls in the choir is 4 times the number of boys in the choir .the total number of students is 60..how many girls

Inessa05 [86]

First, make up some variables to represent the number of Girls and Boys in the choir.

B = number of boys
G = number of girls

You know that there are 4 times as many girls in the choir as boys. Therefore, the equation you can write is:
$\frac{B}{G} = \frac{1}{4}$

If you cross-multiply, then you get the simplified equation:
G = 4B

Intuitively this makes sense since if you multiplied the number of boys in the class by 4, that would be equal to the number of girls you have.

Now, we know that the total class size is 60. So girls plus boys equals 60:
G+B = 60

To solve the equation, replace the G in this equation with the replacement you found before, 4B.
G + B = 60 -->
4B + B = 60 -->
5B = 60 -->
B = 12

However, you are trying to find the number of girls, so plug the answer back into your equation.
G + B = 60 -->
G + 12 = 60 -->
G + 12 -12 = 60 - 12 -->
G = 48

The number of girls you have is 48.
