The question is probably incomplete. What i am assuming is that the person might ask for the previous ratio or the total number of pens and pencil in the drawer.
So if it is the previous ratio it obviously would be 47 - 5 : 17 -3 so 42 : 14 and in case he or she is asking for the total number of pens and pencils in the drawer before so they were 42 + 14 hence 56.
Answer:
1998= 30,000 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
In 1999, the student enrolment at a college was 13% more than it was in 1998. If the enrolment was 36,612 in 2000, which was 8% more than 1999, find the enrolment in 1998
<u>First, we need to determine the enrolment in 1999:</u>
1999= 36,612/1.08
1999= 33,900
<u>Now, we can find the enrolment in 1998:</u>
1998= 33,900/1.13
1998= 30,000
