Answer:
15?
Step-by-step explanation:
As there is no x axis it will have to be vertical as the y axis is already vertical
First, we have to figure out how much cheese we have total. Do this by adding up all of the various cheeses.
Now to split the cheeses into sections of 1/4 pound each, we have to divide by 1/4, which is the same as multipling by 4
13 slices total
2.) Given: There are 30 students. 24 are wearing sneakers.
Work: We can figure this out by finding the exact percentage of sneaker-wearers in the class.
To find the percentage, you do 24/30. 24/30 is equal to 80%.
Answer: Joe is wrong. The percentage of students wearing sneakers is 80% and not 70%.
3.) Given: There are 40 people total. 2 women per 3 men.
Work: 2:3 women to men
If we multiply both by 10, we will get 50 people in total.
20:30 = 50
So we need to shrivel this down to 40 by taking out 5 on both sides of the ratio.
50 - 5 - 5 = 15:25 = 40
But the ratio need to be divisible by 2 because of the 2 women that are needed per 3 men. We can do this by moving over one human to the men’s side.
There are 14 women and 26 men. I didn’t use any of the strategies there listed because I don’t even remember what those are. I’m in grade 9. I would say that the ratio table works best because I just used ratios...
4.) Given: Find simplified fraction of silicon. 100%.
Work: Add all things up to find out the denominator for the fraction. They will equal 100.
So the fraction is 28/100.
We can divide this fraction by 4.
7/25
This is the simplified form.
Answer: 7/25
