$50 - $19 = $31
$31 - $5.50 = $25.50
$4.95 ÷ $25.50 = 5
5 x 100 = 500 notices
Let's start by calculating how many students does 24% represent.
24% * 24 = 0.24 * 24 = 5.76
We got a decimal number as solution. The reason why exactly 24% students can't be in the play is because this percentage does not represent whole number of students. She can't take 0.76 students
If she wanted 25% students to be in a play it would mean she has to take:
25% * 24 = 0.25 *24 = 6 students
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If we let x = the amount of 5% solution and y = the amount of pure alcohol, we can set up that
.05x+y is the amount of alcohol in our resulting mixture, and x+y is the total amount in our resulting mixture (which we know is 380)
so we also know that:
(.05x+y)/380 = .6
If we simplify this we come up with:
.05x+y=228
and we know x+y=380
If we solve this as a system of equations, we will find that:
x=160 ml
y=220 ml
Answer:
A. 2 1/4 + 3 2/5
B. 113/20
Step-by-step explanation: For A: All you had to do was multiply -1(-3 2/5) and that was going to make your answer positive because the negatives were going to cancel each other out.
For B: First you had to make your fractions improper fractions instead of mixed numbers. And that would make it 9/4 + 17/5. Next, since they don't have the same denominator, you would have had to find the least common multiple of 5 and 4 which is 20. So then how ever many times your denominator went in to 20, that's what you'll multiply your numerator by. 45/20 + 68/20= 113/20
