Answer:

3 and 8 are the extremes of the given proportion (first listed answer option)

Step-by-step explanation:

In a proportion of the type:

\frac{A}{B} =\frac{C}{D}

the values "A" and "D" are called "extremes of the proportion, while "B" and "C" are called the "means" of the proportion.

This comes from writing it as:   A : B = C : D

where we observe that A and D are the more "extreme" values being further away from the equal sign than the quantities B and C which are more towards the middle (center of the proportion).

So in your case, the numbers 3 and 8 are the extremes

26 out of the 65 magazines at the bookstore are women's magazines. What percentage of the magazines at the bookstore are women's
egoroff_w [7]

The fraction \frac{26}{64} represents the number of women's magazines out of all the other magazines at the book store.

To find what percent of the magazines are women's magazines, we can turn \frac{26}{64} into a percent.

To write a fraction as a percent in lowest terms, first remember that a percent is a ratio of a number to 100 so to write 26/64 as a percent, we need to find a fraction equivalent to 26/64 with 100 in the denominator. We can do this by setting up a proportion.

40% is the answer
