Answer:

3.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

create a proportion:

inches / miles = inches / miles

let 'x' = distance in inches

1/4 = x

18 252

18x = 252(1/4)

18x = 63

x = 63 / 18

x = 3.5

Answer:

66 2/3 %

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the students not in the 8th grade

24 - 8 = 16

16 students are not in the 8th grade

Take the fraction of the students not in the 8th grade over the total

16/24 = 2/3

Change to a decimal

.66666666666

Multiply by 100 to change to a percent

66.666666%

66 2/3 %
