Answer:

The percent increase of the population of chipmunks was 29%

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The population of 300,000 chipmunks represent the 100%

The increase of population is equal to

(387,000-300,000)=87,000 chipmunks

Using proportion find the percent increase

Let

x-----> the percent increase

300,000/100%=87,000/x

x=100*87,000/300,000

x=29%

Jamie can read at a speed of 65 pages per hour. If she reads a novel that has 400 pages, how long will it
horsena [70]
To find the answer set up an equation:
400 \: pages \times  \frac{1 \: hour}{65 \: pages}  =
Using this set up we can cross our units of pages since they are on opposite side of the proportion, leaving us with the desired units of hours.

Then divide 400 by 65 which will give us our answer: 6.15 or about 6 hours for Jamie to finish her reading.
