Answer:

25% of the students are girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Key skills needed: Ratios, Percents, Fractions</u>

1) There are 6 girls and 18 boys in the class --> This means that there are 6+18 or 24 people in the class total.

2) 6 of the 24 people are girls. So as a fraction --> 6/24 is the number of girls over the total number of people.

3) This can be simplified as 1/4 --> Divide 1 by 4 --> And this is 0.25

4) Multiply this by a 100 to get a percent form --> 25%

A container is 24m long ,9m wide and 8m high.how many books can it holds if eachbook is 20cm long,16cm wide and 6cm thick
Contact [7]
Assuming that the container and books are rectangular, the volume of both objects can be computed with the formula V=lwh, where l is length, w is width, and h is height.
As the volume of the container is 1728 m^3, while the volume of each book is 1920 cm^3. The volume for each book is converted to in terms of meters by dividing it with 100^3. The volume for each  book after this conversion is 1.92 x 10^-3 m^3.
The number of the books that can fit in the shelf is the volume of the shelf divided by the volume of the books, with the assumption that the books fit perfectly in the shelf.
With the volume of the shelf divided by the volume of the books, 900,000 books can be fitted in the shelf.
