Answer:

80% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out how much percent each candy is worth:

100/15 = 6.67%

Find out how many pieces she gave away:

15 - 3 = 12

Multiply the pieces gave away by the percent per piece:

12 x 6.67 = 80.04

Round to the nearest whole number.

When using a calculator for 100/15 and then multiply by 12 you get exactly 80.

Answer:

90°

Step-by-step explanation:

Arc a subtends and angle of 45° to the circumference of the circle

We know that;

An angle subtended by an arc to the center of a circle is twice the angle subtended by the same chord to the center of the circle.

Therefore, if arc a subtends and angle of 45° to the circumference of the circle then;

a will be = 45 × 2

= 90°

Answer:

$Product = \frac{3}{5}ab$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$-\frac{3}{7}a$

$-\frac{21}{15}b$

Required

The product

The product is:

$Product = -\frac{3}{7}a * -\frac{21}{15}b$ '

Cancel out the negative signs

$Product = \frac{3}{7}a * \frac{21}{15}b$

Simplify fractions

$Product = \frac{1}{7}a * \frac{21}{5}b$

$Product = \frac{1}{1}a * \frac{3}{5}b$

$Product = \frac{3}{5}ab$

Answer:

$564$ tiles

Step-by-step explanation:

there are many ways to solve this soo...

1. convert to centimetres (there are 100 centimetres in 1 metre)

2. the square tiles area = $20*20=400cm$

2. find the large area (4.8m x 3.8m or 480cm x 380cm)

$480 *380=182400cm$

2. find the two smaller areas (1.2m x 1.8m or 120cm x 180cm)

$2(120*180)=4.3200cm$

3. add to find total area

$182400 +43200=225600cm$

4. find how many tiles are needed

$\frac{225600}{400}= 564$ tiles
