5x + 25 < 85
5x < 60
x < 12
If you do the proportion, you have to put 1/5 = 20/100. The 20 represents the percentage. Then you have to say to yourself that how many time 5 goes to 100, well its x20 then if we multiply 1 x 20 we'll get 20. So, he is correct, 1/5 = 20%. Remember what number we think of when we hear the word percent, the number is 100.
Answer:
80 square meters
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle that is partitioned into two rectangles; rectangle A and rectangle B
Rectangle A:
Top = 5 meters
Side = 8 meters
Area of rectangle A = length × width
= 5 meters × 8 meters
= 40 meters ²
Rectangle B:
Top = 5 meters
Side = 8 meters
Area of rectangle B = length × width
= 5 meters × 8 meters
= 40 meters ²
Total area of the partitioned rectangle = area of rectangle A + area of rectangle B
= 40 meters ² + 40 meters ²
= 80 meters ²
33•3 is 99, so the answer is 3
