Answer:
3.18%
Step-by-step explanation:
(14/31) X (13/30)X (12/29) X (11/28) = 0.0318 = 3.18%
"31-inch piece of steel is cut into three pieces"
Call the pieces a,b,c
a + b + c = 31
"second piece is twice as long as the first piece"
b = 2a
"third piece is one inch more than seven times the length of the first piece"
c = 1 + 7a
Ok, we have our equations, let's substitute the second and third into the first.
a + 2a + 1 + 7a = 31
10a + 1 = 31
10a = 30
a = 30/10 = 3
b = 2a = 6
c = 1 + 7a = 22
Check: 3 + 6 + 22 = 31, good
Answer: 3 inches, 6 inches, 22 inches
You just add the values for volunteers that worked 16-20 hours and 21-25 hours which would be 50 + 10 = 60. So the total number of volunteers that workers more than 15 hours is 60.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1/9
(1*4) / (9*4) = 4/36
(1*4) / (9*4) = 5/45
The first one is the ratio as it is stated in the problem.
The second one multiplies top and bottom by 4
The third one multiplies top and bottom of the top ratio by 5.
