3/x=36
Multiply both sides by x
3=36x
Then divide both sides by 36
3/36=x
1/12=x
Final answer: 1/12
Answer:B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
To find out the number coming from each school, you need to use the proportion of the school's population out of the population of all three.
Total population = 618 + 378 + 204
= 1,200 students
North Middle school:
= 618/1,200 * 20
= 10 students
Central Middle School:
= 378 / 1,200 * 20
= 6 students
South Middle School:
= 204/1,200 * 20
= 4 students
The second choice is the answer
Average = (A₁+A₂+A₃+A₄+A₅)/5. Since average = 20 (GIVEN), then:
20 = (A₁+A₂+A₃+A₄+A₅)/5
Or (A₁+A₂+A₃+A₄+A₅) = 20x5
(A₁+A₂+A₃+A₄+A₅) = 100
