6 0

Answer:

As the ratio is 5:3, it totals 8 parts. I would do 480 divided by 8 to get the number of pages per part, then multiply that number into the ratio.

480 / 8 = 60

The value of each part being 60 put into the ratio 5:3 = 60x5 : 60x3

Which gives your answer.

A bag contains 7 apples and 5 oranges. if you select 6 pieces of fruit without looking, how many ways can you get exactly 5 appl
Flauer [41]

[<em>We assume that each piece of apple is identical</em>]

{{{{This part for little more explanation:

There are 12C6 ways that 6 fruits can be taken from the bag

which is equal to

=12!/{(12-6)!*6!}

=(12*11*10*9*8*7*6!) / (6!*6!)

=665280 / (6*5*4*3*2*1)

=924 ways

}}}}}

Your main solution here:

Similarly there are 6C5 ways to get exactly 5 apples out of 6 fruits which is equal to,

=6! / {(6-5)! *5! }

=(6*5!) / (1!*5!)

=6 ways>>>>>>>ANSWER

NOTE: nCx=n! / [(n-x)! *x!]  where n=total items and x= no of items choosen

{n is written up in the upper left of C and x is written as Subscript}

A small school had 60% boys and the rest are girls if the number of boys is 48 what is the total number of boys and girls all to
Flura [38]

Hey there!

When dealing with percent word problems, the word "is" means equals. Let's see what we can do with your problem.

If the small school had 60% boys, it will have 40% girls. The number of boys <em>is</em> 48, which should equal 60% of the total, which we can model below, with t representing the total number of kids. In decimal form, 60% is 0.6.

0.6t=48

We divide both sides by 0.6.

t=80

Therefore, there are 80 total kids at the school.

We can also check our answer below.

BOYS: 0.6(80)= 48

GIRLS: 0.4(80)=32

48+32=80

I hope that this helps!

The temperature changed from 5C at 6 p.m. to -2C at midnight. How much did the temperature decrease?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
Salutations!

The temperature changed from 5°C at 6 p.m. to -2°C at midnight. How much did the temperature decrease?

Lets solve this!

To find out how much the temperature is decreased, you need to subtract 5°°C from -2° C. from . 

Lets form this into statements ---

Temperature at 6 PM = 5°C

Temperature at midnight = -2°C.

Temperature decreased = 5°C - 2°C = 3° C.

3°C is the temperature decreased. 

Hope I helped (:

Have a great day!
