Between 2000 and 2010, the percentage of fatal automobile accidents due to speeding decreased by 34% to 16%. What percentage of

docker41 [41]

Answer: 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2010 the percentage of fatal accidents was 16%.

This is 34% less than it was in 2000 because the text says that the 2010 percentage was 16% after being reduced by 34% from 2010.

The percentage of fatal accidents in 2000 is therefore:

= 2010 fatal percentage + Percentage reduced from 2000

= 16% + 34%

= 50%

In a particular month, Ezhil spent one-fifth of her salary on shopping. Two-fifth of the remaining she gave to her sister. If sh

Oxana [17]

Answer:

$Salary = Rs23000$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Shopping = \frac{1}{5}$

$Sister = \frac{2}{5}R$

$Left over = Rs11,040$

Required

Her salary in that month

Given that she spent $\frac{1}{5}$ of her salary on shopping, this implies that she has $\frac{4}{5}$ of her salary left

From what's left, she gave her sister $\frac{2}{5}$

This means she gave her sister $\frac{2}{5} * \frac{4}{5}$

Sister = $\frac{8}{25}$

Calculating a fraction of what's left

$Left over = 1 -Shopping - Sister$

$Left over = 1 - \frac{1}{5}- \frac{8}{25}$

$Left over = \frac{25 - 5 - 8}{25}$

$Left over = \frac{12}{25}$

Recall that she has Rs11,040

This means that

$\frac{12}{25} of Salary = Rs11,040$

Multiply both sides by $\frac{25}{12}$

$\frac{12}{25} * \frac{25}{12} * Salary = Rs11,040 * \frac{25}{12}$

$Salary = Rs11,040 * \frac{25}{12}$

$Salary = \frac{Rs276000}{12}$

$Salary = Rs23000$

Hence, her salary for that month was Rs23000

There are 40 monkeys and 60% of the monkeys are in the trees. How many monkeys are in the trees?

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

24 monkeys are in the tree

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve it by writing $\frac{60}{100}$ times $\frac{40}{1}$

Why is it over 100? Because every percent is out of 100!

$\frac{60}{100}$ X $\frac{40}{1}$ (your equation)

60 times 40 = 2400 and 100 times 1 = 100, We get, $\frac{2400}{100}$ ,

Lastly, we simplify the fraction by 100 on each side:

$\frac{2400}{100}$ / $\frac{100}{100}$

you get 24
