2143 - 180 = 1963

So the polar bear weighs 1963 pounds more than the penguin.

Hint: (whenever a problem asks "how many more" its almost always subtraction)

Miguel tells his teacher1/5 is the same as 20%. Which best justifies Miguel’s answer? a.5 goes into 100 twenty times, so 20% is

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

C. 5 goes into 100 twenty times, and 1 times 20 is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, we know that when we multiply both numerator and denominator of a fraction by a same number then we obtain an equivalent fraction,

Here, the given fraction,

$\frac{1}{5}$

By the above statement,

$\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1\times 20}{5\times 20}=\frac{20}{100}$

Now,

$a\%=\frac{a}{100}$

$\implies \frac{20}{100}=20\%$

Hence,

$\frac{1}{5}=20\%$

Option C is correct.

Darlene has 59 pages to type. so far she gas type 23 pages. what fraction of the job is finished

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

$\frac{23}{59}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction can be found be taking the current amount over the total amount:

$\frac{current}{total}=\frac{23}{59}$

Since Darlene has only typed 23 pages out of 59, her fraction is 23 over 59. Fractions must always be in simplest form, which means that both the numerator and denominator can no longer be divided by the same factor. Since the numbers 23 and 59 are both prime and have no other factors other than 1 and themselves, the fraction 23/59 is in simplest form.
