One of the ways to find the answer is to find how much 1 percent of 150 is. To do that we just have to divide 150 by 100:
150 / 100 = 1.5
Now we can divide 9 by 1.5 to know how much percent of 150 it is:
9 / 1.5 = 6
Let's check it:
150 * 6% = 150 * 6/100 = 15 * 6/10 = 3 * 6/2 = 18/2 = 9
It's correct then :)
Let's first turn all the words into numbers:
Two and four tenths = 2.4
One and six tenths = 1.6
Four and one tenth = 4.1
Now lets represent "a number" as x.
Then translate the wording into a linear equation:
Simplify and isolate the variable:
Divide by 0.8
x>1.375 or x>1 3/8
Answer:
I believe the answer is D
Step-by-step explanation:
Inverse proportion occurs when one value increases and the other decreases
D is the answer because as each cat eats the same amount of dry cat food, there is less dry cat food in the bag; so this is why D best answers the question.
Hope this helps!
