140 / 100 * X = 56
X = 56 * 100 / 140 = 5600 / 140 = 40
Answer:
Hi there!
Your answer is;
a)
i) 400% of 240
240 is 100%
× 4
960= 400%
ii) 40% of 240
100% = 240
/100
1% = 2.4
× 40
40% = 96
iii) 4% of 240
100% is 240
/100
1% = 2.4
× 4
4% = 9.6
iv) .04% of 240
100% = 240
/100
1% = 2.4
/100
.01% = .024
× 4
.04% = .096
b) the patterns is that all these numbers equal sometime 96. Each of these have a different decimal place, but have the same actual numbers.
c) 4000% = 240
take the pattern:
400% is 960
Scale it up to 4000 by 10
400% is 960
× 10
4000% is 9600
Hope this helps!
Ratio of children, adults and pensioners is 1 : 2 : 8/3 = 3 : 6 : 8.
Let, 3x is number of children.
So, 6x is number of adults and 8x is number of pensioners.
Now,
3x + 6x + 8x = 85
17x = 85
x = 5
Therefore, number of pensioners are 8×5 = 40.
Hence, this is the required solution.
I assume you need find out √28=√7*4=2√7
√150=√5*5*6=5√6
hope it helps
