Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume each person in the group must have 1 pencil AND 1 eraser each.

Since you have more pencils than erasers, then the limiting factor is the number of erasers. So a group of 56 people will have 1 pencil And 1 eraser and Clare will have 24 pencils left over (assuming Clare has her own pencil and eraser - if not then the group size is 55 assuming Clare is not in the group)

sorry if it's too confusing

Which situation represents a proportional relationship?
Natalka [10]

Answer:

B) Jack biked 5 miles in 25 minutes and 8 miles in 40 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y=kx

The ratio between the two variables is a constant called constant of proportionality k

k=y/x

<u><em>Verify each case</em></u>

A) Julie sold 4 necklaces for $12 and 9 necklaces for $25.

\frac{4}{12}=\frac{9}{25}

Multiply in cross

4(25)=9(12)\\100\neq108

Is not true

therefore

The situation not represent a proportional relationship

B) Jack biked 5 miles in 25 minutes and 8 miles in 40 minutes.

\frac{5}{25}=\frac{8}{40}

Multiply in cross

5(40)=8(25)\\200=200

Is true

therefore

The situation represent a proportional relationship

C) Larry packed 24 apples in 6 boxes and 46 apples in 9 boxes

\frac{24}{6}=\frac{46}{9}

Multiply in cross

24(9)=46(6)\\216\neq276

Is not true

therefore

The situation not represent a proportional relationship

D) Allie put 14 pieces of candy in 2 bags and 30 pieces of candy in 4 bags

\frac{14}{2}=\frac{30}{4}

Multiply in cross

14(4)=30(2)\\56\neq60

Is not true

therefore

The situation not represent a proportional relationship

What is the probability of the spinner landing on 2?
Nadusha1986 [10]
It depends on how many sides it has

If it has 2 then 50 percent
If it has 4 then 25 percent
If it has 5 then 20 percent

You divide the amount of sides by 100

x / 100 = percent

Example 2 / 100 = 50.

Hope This Helps!
