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.

Allison and Megan were at track practice. The track is 3/8 kilometers around.
Ad libitum [116K]

Allison ran 3/8 km (0.375 km) in 3 minutes.

Set up a proportion to find how long it takes for her to run 1 km

\frac{0.375\textrm{km}}{3 \textrm{min}} = \frac{1\textrm{km}}{x \textrm{min}}

Cross multiply to get:

3 = 0.375x

Solve:

x = \frac{3}{0.375}

x = 8 minutes
