Answer:
Incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let, the first number is x, and the second number is y. Given, the second number is 125% of the first number. So, the equation will be
y = 1.25 x
Or, y= 5/4x
Now, multiplying it with 4/5, we get, x= 4/5y
Or, x= 0.80 y
But, Brad is saying the first number must be 75% of the second number. But here we see that the first number is 80% of the second number. That's why Brad is incorrect.

For this question, it would be most effective to use an algebraic expression to more easily show what the question is asking. If we use the variable "k" to show the distance in km that he cycled on Sunday, we know that the amount he cycled on Saturday equals k + 12, and the amount that he cycled on the weekend should be the amount of Saturday plus the amount of Sunday. If we write this as an equation we say:
k + k + 12 = 38
=> 2k + 12 = 38
Now we can just rearrange and solve for k:
=> 2k = 26
=> k = 26/2 = 13
Therefore Patrick cycled 13km on Sunday
To solve the answer, we just add 12km to the value for Sunday like so:
12 + 13 = the amount he cycled on Sunday
Hope this helped, remember to please try and understand the maths as well as the answer :))
Based on her results, if she flipped the coins another 50 times, she should expect to flip heads 20 times. If Jessica flips a coin 100 times and gets 40 times heads and the next time she flips a coin 50 times she should get 20 because, 100 divide 2 is 50 so you would have to divide 40 with 2 and get the answer of 20.
