Answer:

16 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

The total length of ribbon cut off from the 20 pieces is 8*20 because each piece is equal to 8. 8*20=160

The amount of ribbon left afterwards is 400-160 which is equal to 240.

We can do 240 divided by 15 to see how many pieces that we can cut. 240/15=16

An office has 80 employees, and 24 of the employees are managers. What percentage of the employees are managers?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Solution:

30% of the employees are managers.

Explanation:

We have been given that there are 80 employees, and 24 of the employees are managers.

We have to find the percentage of the employees that are managers.

We can find this percentage with the below formula

\% = \frac{\text{Number of managers}}{\text{Total number of employee}}\times 100

On substituting the known values, we get

\%=\frac{24}{80}\times 100\\\%=\frac{3}{10}\times 100\\\%=3\times 10\\\%=30\%

Therefore, 30% of the employees are managers.

A man is on a diet and goes into a shop to buy some turkey slices. He is given 3 slices which together weigh 1/3 of a pound, but
Ghella [55]
The three slices are each approximately 1/9 pound in weight, and, since 2/9 is less than 1/4, he can eat 2 whole slices and be okay. If he wants to eat partial slices, then he could eat 2 1/4 slices, as each slice weighs 4/36 pounds, so 2 slices would equal 8/36 pounds, leaving 1/36 pound left over in his diet, which is a quarter of the third slice.
