Using proportions, it is found that Mrs. Wood should expect 1,898 books out of the 36,500 to have major damage.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
For this problem, the proportion of books with major damage is:
43/(716 + 68 + 43) = 0.051995.
Hence, out of 36,500 books, the expected amount of books with major damage is:
0.051995 x 36,500 = 1898.

<h2>Given</h2>
- A quadrilateral ABCD with opposite pairs of sides being congruent.
<h2>To prove</h2>
- Opposite sides are parallel.
<h2>Solution</h2>
We'll prove first the triangles formed by diagonal are congruent then we'll prove the angles on either side of diagonal are congruent.
<u>The steps are:</u>
- Step ⇒ Statement ⇒ Reason
=============================================================
- 1 ⇒ AB ≅ CD and BC ≅ AD ⇒ Given
- 2 ⇒ AC = CA ⇒ Common side
- 3 ⇒ ΔABC ≅ ΔCDA ⇒ Side-side-side congruence
- 4 ⇒ ∠BAC ≅ ∠DCA ⇒ Corresponding angles of congruent triangles
- 5 ⇒ ∠BAC and ∠DCA are alternate interior angles ⇒ Definition of alternate interior angles
- 6 ⇒ AB║CD ⇒ The converse of alternate interior angles theorem
- 7 ⇒ ∠BCA ≅ ∠DAC ⇒ Corresponding angles of congruent triangles
- 8 ⇒ ∠BCA & ∠DAC are alternate interior angles ⇒ Definition of alternate interior angles
- 9 ⇒ BC║AD ⇒ The converse of alternate interior angles theorem
Answer:
Yeah, you're right!
Step-by-step explanation:
For 1/6 it's 17%, so just divide by two and you get 8% (rounded).
