For this, no math is even needed! The question says 1,000 people were interviewed. 42% percent of that 1,000 owns an SUV. If it's a percent, it is 42/100, right? Now we have to make that 42/100 out of 1000. We add a zero to the 100 on the bottom (42/1000). We do the same thing on the top. Add a zero! 420.
SECOND POSSIBLE SOLUTION
Solve this with logic! 42% is nearly 50%. Half of 1,000 is 500. What is closest to 500? 420! This solution is even easier.
Hope this helps you!
<span>Form a sequence that has two arithmetic means between -13 and 89. a. -13, 33, 43, 89 c. -13, 21, 55, 89 b. -18, -36, -72, -144 d. -18, -81, -144
Solution:
Since it has to be between -13 and 89, letter d and b are not anymore considered to be the answer.
for a:
33-(-13)=46=d
43-33=10=d the value for this d is different from the two sequence,
89-43=46=d
they have different value for d, thus this is not the answer!
for c:
21-(-13)=34=d
55-21=34=d
89-55=34=d
they have the same value for d, thus the correct answer is </span><span> c. -13, 21, 55, 89</span>
Add half a tenth.
.. 4.9675 +0.05 = 5.0175
Throw away all the digits to the right of the tenths digit.
.. 5.0
Your rounded number is 5.0
A nice riddle, mathematical riddle.
Assuming a turtle winning means the declared winner is the weaker one actually won over the stronger one. In this context, the turtle winner is the one who has a lesser number of favourable votes.
The given rules for the points are as follows:
1. Point for the first choice must be greater than or equal to that of the second choice.
2. All points must be positive whole numbers.
Let's suppose we have Henry against Tim.
Henry is favourite of the voters and is the leading candidate, according to popular polls.
Tim is an excellent manipulator, sly, and everybody knows this.
On polling day, the vote count came out as follows (in point counts)
Henry Tim
2 1
2 1
2 1
2 1
2 1
2 1
10 1 (Henry's own vote)
1 100 (Tim's own vote)
------------------
17 107 TOTAL POINTS
So Tim the turtle was declared winner of the race, and since everything was according to rule, even a recount of the votes did not change the results.
Be aware, voting by districts (instead of popular votes) also exhibits a similar problem.
Answer:
30 or 780 is your answer for the first one. i dont know how to work out the answer for the 2 one im sorry :(
