Answer:

To find this out, turn 3/8 into decimal form, (0.375).

Now, turn each percent into standard form. (Also decimal form)

26% = 0.26, 27% = 0.27, 37% = 0.37, and 38% = 0.38.

The decimal closest to 0.375 is 37%.

Anastaziya [24]
You need to know in how many ways you can choose 10 out of 25 items when order does not matter. This is a combination problem.

_{n}C_{r} =  \dfrac{n!}{(n - r)!r!}

_{25}C_{10} =  \dfrac{25!}{(25 - 10)!10!}

_{25}C_{10} =  \dfrac{25 \times 24 \times 23 \times 22 \times 21 \times 20 \times 19 \times 18 \times 17 \times 16 \times 15!}{15! \times 10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}

_{25}C_{10} =  \dfrac{25 \times 24 \times 23 \times 22 \times 21 
\times 20 \times 19 \times 18 \times 17 \times 16}{10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 
\times 2 \times 1}

_{25}C_{10} =  \dfrac{23 \times 11 \times 20 \times 19 \times 2 \times 17}{1}

_{25}C_{10} = 23 \times 11 \times 20 \times 19 \times 2 \times 17

_{25}C_{10} = 3,268,760

Answer:

1000 : 1000 : 1500

Step-by-step explanation:

2 + 2 + 3 = 7

3500 ÷ 7 = 500

2 × 500 = 1000

2 × 500 = 1000

3 × 500 = 1500

There are 7 boxes stacked on the floor in the math department supply closet. Each box has a height of 10 inches or 8 inches. The
Orlov [11]

Answer:

5 of the 7 boxes are 8 inches in height

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically;

1 ft = 12 inches

So, 5 ft will measure 5 * 12 = 60 inches

So from what we have ,

We want to combine 8 and 10 inches to give 60 inches total

Let the number of 10 inches be x and the number of 8 inches be y

Mathematically;

x + y = 7 •••••(i)

10x + 8y = 60 ••••(ii)

From equation i, x = 7-y

Put this in equation ii

10(7-y) + 8y = 60

70-10y + 8y = 60

70-60 = 10y-8y

2y = 10

y = 10/2

y = 5
