Answer:

Decimal = 0.04

Fraction = 1/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of student in Marosaa school be 1

If she found that 0.96 of the students supported a plan to shorten the school day by 15 minutes, the portion of student that did not support will be expressed as;

= 1-0.96

= 0.04

The expression as a decimal is 0.04

As a fraction;

0.04 = 4/100

4/100 = 1/25

Hence the expression as a fraction in its simplest form is 1/25

sam had 70 erasers and rulers. after giving away 1/3 of his erasers and 10 rulers, he had an equal number of erasers and rulers
Radda [10]

Answer:

36 erasers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of erasers be e

let number of rulers be r

We can write:

e + r = 70

and

After giving away, he has

Erasers:  2/3e

Rulers:  r - 10

These two are equal, so we can write and solve:

2/3e = r - 10

2/3e + 10 = r

Putting this in initial equation, we have:

e + (2/3e + 10) = 70

5/3e + 10 = 70

5/3 e = 60

e = 36

And rulers is:

r = 2/3(36) + 10 = 34

Hence, he had 36 erasers in the beginning

The surface area of a cone is 43.75 cm2 what is the slant height of the cone ? The base diameter is 5
kramer
<span>The first step in finding the surface area of a cone is to measure the radius of the circle part of the cone. The next step is to find the area of the circle, or base. The area of a circle is 3.14 times the radius squared (<span>πr2</span><span>). Now, you will need to find the area of the cone itself. In order to do this, you must measure the side (slant height) of the cone. Make sure you use the same form of measurement as the radius.

You can now use the measurement of the side to find the area of the cone. The formula for the area of a cone is 3.14 times the radius times the side (</span>πrl<span>).

So the surface area of the cone equals the area of the circle plus the area of the cone and the final formula is given by:</span>
