If you choose 10 swimmers and 4 are Stingrays, you can say that Stingrays make up roughly 40% of the swimmers. If 20 Stingrays make up 40% of all the swimmers, we just have to find what number 20 is 40% of. That’s easy enough by cross multiplication:

20/x = 40/100

20/x = 4/10

20/x = 2/5

x = 50.

Double check by multiplying 50 * 0.4. Since 50 * 0.4 = 20, we know we have the right answer. There are about 50 swimmers on this team.

Find the area use 3.14 for pi
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

15.14 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = 4cm x 3 cm = 12cm^2

Radius of the circle = 2 cm

Area of 1/4 of a circle = (pi x r^2) / 4

= (3.14 x 4) / 4 = 3.14 cm^2

3.14 cm^2 + 12cm^2 = 15.14 cm^2
