Answer:
35%
total number of 11th graders = 32+18 = 50
calculating percentage:
18÷50×100
= 36%
Keep Change Flip!!!
Keep: the first fraction 5 or 5/1
Change: Division sign to multiplication sign
Flip (reciprocal): the second fraction
So you get 5/1*9/2= 45/2 which simplified to 22 1/2
-1/12 - (-11/12) would change into -1/12 + 11/12 because a double negative (bold print) would become a positive. The answer to the new problem would be 10/12 or 5/6 (depending on if it says to simplify).
First you take 15/10 and see that you can take 5 out of the top and bottom, so it would become 3/2. Now you have 2 3/2. 2 goes into 3 once with 1 remainder so 3/2= 1 1/2
So then you take the original 2 and add it to 1 1/2. The answer is now 3 1/2
1. (77+x)/2=84
2. Harold needs at least a 91
Work:
first, you multiply both sides by 2; 77+x=168
then you subtract 77 from both sides; x=91
then you plug it back in to check; (77+91)/2=84 ; 168/2=84 ; 84=84
