Students in 2014 = (100% + 33%) × 2,300
students in 2014 = 133% × 2,300
students in 2014 = 133/100 × 2,300
students in 2014 = 3,059
There are 3,059 students in 2014
Answer:
x = -4 y =-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.
This Question is related to Direct Proportionality
Here : The Number of Miles Driven is Directly Proportional to Number of Gallons of Gas
Number of Miles ∝ Gallons of Gas
Given Keith with 16 Gallons of Gas Drove 436 Miles
⇒ Keith with 1 Gallon of Gas would Drive -
Miles
⇒ Keith with 1 Gallon of Gas would Drive : 27.25 Miles
⇒ Keith with 14 Gallons of Gas would Drive : 14 × 27.25 Miles
⇒ Keith with 14 Gallons of Gas would Drive : 381.5 Miles
You mean '39 is what percent of 12.5 ?'
So, the answer is
39/12.5 × 100
= 3.12 × 100
= 312%
So, 39 is 312% of 12.5.
(The percentage is greater because 39 is greater than 12.5)
