8/11 of what = 16

8/11x = 16
x = 16 * 11/8
x = 176/8
x = 22......so there are a total of 22 fish in the tank

Let x = total number of fish in the tank

8x/11 = 16
Solve this for x
Cross multiplying
8x = 11*16 = 176
x = 176/8 = 22
There are 22 fish

How do I solve the length of AC?

Crank

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

∆ABC and ∆ADE are similar triangles.

Thus ;

$\frac{AD}{AC} = \frac{DE}{BC} = \frac{AE}{AB} \\$

So :

$\frac{5}{3 + 2x} = \frac{4}{8} \\$

$\frac{5}{3 + 2x} = \frac{1}{2} \\$

Inverse both sides

$\frac{3 + 2x}{5} = \frac{2}{1} \\$

$\frac{2x + 3}{5} = 2 \\$

Multiply sides by 5

$5 \times \frac{2x + 3}{5} = 5 \times 2 \\$

$2x + 3 = 10$

Thus ;

$AC = 2x + 3 = 10$

$AC = 10$

Done...

5 is what percentage of 25? I’ll give brainliest:)

lord [1]

Hi there! :)

To solve, we can simply divide and multiply by 100 to solve for the percentage:

5 / 25 = 5 ÷ 25 = 1/5 or 0.20

Multiply the decimal by 100 to solve for the percentage:

0.20 × 100 = 20%
