In 1665, Anthony Johnson moved to Maryland and leased a 300-acre plantation, where he died five years later. But back in Virginia that same year, a jury decided the land Johnson left behind could be seized by the government because he was a "negroe and by consequence an alien." In 1705 Virginia declared that "All servants imported and brought in this County... who were not Christians in their Native Country... shall be slaves. A Negro, mulatto and Indian slaves ... shall be held to be real estate."

k0ka [10]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

In the period from 1450-1750 new ideas such as individualism, freedom, and self—determination rose out of the Enlightenment. All these new and deep ideas of the Enlightenment changed thinking in Europe around politics, society, or the economy, and not only of Europe, but beyond.

The Enlightenment was a time in which great thinkers and philosophers shared new information about forms of government and citizens' rights. These ideas came from brilliant minds that influenced many European governments. We are talking about John Locke, Voltaire, Jean-Jaques Rosseau, and Baron of Montesquiou.

From these author's minds born ideas such as having a division of government in an executive branch, a legislative branch, and a judicial branch, as was the case of the ideas of Baron of Montesquiou.

These political and social ideals influenced independent movements such as the Revolutionary War, the French Revolution, and the Independence of México.

Express 56 1/4% as a fraction, simplest form.
vazorg [7]
I'm assuming the problem is 56 x 1/4%.

1) convert the fraction percent to a decimal number percentage:
1/4% --> 0.25%

2) convert the percent to decimal (to do this, you can move the decimal two numbers to the left OR divide the percent by 100):
0.25% --> 0.0025

3) convert from decimal to fraction (ten thousandths place):
0.0025 --> 25/10000

4) simplify the fraction:
25/10000 (divide top and bottom by 25) = 1/400

5) multiply the whole number times the fraction:
56/400

6) simplify:
(divide top and bottom by 4)
56/400 = 14/100
