Adam's dad paid £52.20.
This is considered three "parts" of the total cost.
Let's divide by 3 to find the size of one part.
£52.20 ÷ 3 = £17.40
Now, multiply by 5 (Adam's parts + his dad's) to get the total cost.
$\boxed{\£87}$

(I'll do it with a dollar sign cause I don't have pounds on my laptop).

- Adam's Dad pays 3/5 parts of the meal

- Adam's dad pays $52.20 that equal 3/5

- Adam pays 2/5

-Divide A's dads payment of $52.20 by 3

- That means $17.40 is 1/5

- $17.40 x 5 = $82 and that is the full meal

Answer:

A1) 125

A2) 47.5%

B) 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember 'of' in this sentence means times(*). % shows a certain number/100.

a1) 48% 'of' what number is 60?

(let unknown number be x)

48/100 *x=60

Solve the equation, and the answer is x=125

a2) what percentage 'of' 120 is 57?

(let the unknown percentage be x)

(x/100)*120=57

x=47.5%

b) 24 students= 80% of the total number of students

1%=24/80

100% of the total number of students=30

So, there are total of 30 students

The surface area of a pyramid is 327 square meters. what is the surface area of a similar pyramid that is smaller by a scale fac

N76 [4]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{144.33 m}^{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor (C) is the ratio of corresponding parts of the two pyramids.

The ratio of the areas is the square of the scale factor.

$\dfrac{A_{1}}{ A_{2}} = C^{2}\\\\\dfrac{\text{327 m}^{2}}{A_{2}} = \left (\dfrac{1}{\frac{2}{3}}\right)^{2}\\\\ \dfrac{\text{327 m}^{2}}{A_{2}}= \dfrac{9}{4}\\\\\text{1308 m}^{2}= 9A_{2}\\\\A_{2} = \text{145.33 m}^{2}\\\text{The surface area of the smaller pyramid is \boxed{\text{145.33 m}^{2}}}$
