If you choose 10 swimmers and 4 are Stingrays, you can say that Stingrays make up roughly 40% of the swimmers. If 20 Stingrays make up 40% of all the swimmers, we just have to find what number 20 is 40% of. That’s easy enough by cross multiplication:
20/x = 40/100
20/x = 4/10
20/x = 2/5
x = 50.
Double check by multiplying 50 * 0.4. Since 50 * 0.4 = 20, we know we have the right answer. There are about 50 swimmers on this team.
Answer:
$0.33 or 33¢
Step-by-step explanation:
33/100 = 0.33 = $0.33
Add like terms and put x in the middle.
-3 < -2x + x - 3x ≤ 5 - 2
-3 < - 4x ≤ 3
Sign changed when divide by negative numbers
(3/4) > x ≥ (-3/4)
