1 answer:

7 0

Let the unknown number be y.
We can list the equation out by the clues given.
5y + 12 = 52
Then solve this as simple algebra!
Shift +12 to the other side and be - 12
5y = 52-12
5y = 40
Shift x5 to the other side and be ÷5
y = 40 / 5
y = 8
Therfore the unknown number is 8.

Archy [21]

Answer:

16,000 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's write a ratio

8,000:20,000

Let's write another ratio

x:40,000

We can write a percent proportion.

$\frac{8,000}{20,000} =\frac{x}{40,000}$

We can see that the relationship between the denominators is multiplied by 2 so that means the relationship between 8,000 and x is x is 2 times greater than 8,000
