Since each table had 7 women and 3 men at each table, that would mean each table has 10 people. Since there are 9 tables he was waiting on, and 10 people at each table, multiply 9 x 10, and you will find that he served 90 people in total.
Answer:
35 is the 'is' and 40 is the 'of'
Step-by-step explanation:
is/of = %/100
35/40 = x/100
cross-multiply to get:
40x = 3500
x = 3500/40
x = 87.5
Step-by-step explanation:
porportional means they scale by the same ratio
L / W = L_1 / W_2 = 5.4 / 2.5 = 6.21 / x
solve for x
It would be great if you added some more details, but for common denominators you try to find the least common number that the 2 or more of the numbers you got have!
For example:
1/2 and 2/3 if you multiply 2 by 3 and 3 by 2, they both are 6, so you would multiply 1/2 both by 3 to make it into 3/6 and 2/3 by 2 to make it into 4/6!
