Answer:

7 students

Step-by-step explanation:

35% of the students have blond hair, and there are 20 students in the class.

"of" means multiply, therefore multiply 35% and 20.

35%*20

Convert 35% to a decimal by dividing by 100 or moving the decimal place 2 spots to the left.

35/100=0.35

35.0-->3.5-->0.35

0.35*20

Multiply

7

7 students in the class have blond hair.

Answer:

7 the answer is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We assume, that the number 20 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 20 is 100%, so we can write it down as 20=100%.

4. We know, that x is 35% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=35%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 20=100%

2) x=35%

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

20/x=100%/35%

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 35% of 20

20/x=100/35

(20/x)*x=(100/35)*x       -

20=2.85714285714*x       -

20/2.85714285714=x

7=x

x=7

now we have:

35% of 20=7

we multiply both sides by x

then we divide both sides by 2.85714285714 to get x

A month of the year is chosen at random. What is the probability that the month starts with the letter J or the letter M?
Flauer [41]

Answer:

The probability that the month starts with the letter J or the letter M is 41.66%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a month of the year is chosen at random, to determine what is the probability that the month starts with the letter J or the letter M, the following calculation must be performed:

January - March - May - June - July = 5 months

(5/12) x 100 = X

0.4166 x 100 = X

41.66 = X

Therefore, the probability that the month starts with the letter J or the letter M is 41.66%.
