Answer:
Each students provides 13 pounds of meal
Step-by-step explanation:
Total students in Ms. Lee class = 220
Total pounds of food collected = 2,860
how many meals did each student provide?
Meals provided by each student = Total pounds of food collected / total number of students
= 2,860 / 220
= 13 pounds
Each students provides 13 pounds of meal
Note: 1.2 pounds of food equals one meal
1.2 pounds : 1 meal = 13 pounds : x meals
1.2/1 = 13/x
1.2 * x = 1 * 13
1.2x = 13
x = 13 / 1.2
= 10.83 meals
Approximately 11 meals to the nearest number
Note:1 kilogram is 2.2 pounds
1 kg : 2.2 pounds = x kg : 13 pounds
1/2.2 = x / 13
1 * 13 = 2.2 * x
13 = 2.2x
x = 13/2.2
= 5.91 kilogram
Approximately x = 6 kilograms
Hello!
to find the percent of a whole, use this equation here:
(remaining) / (total) = X
X * 100 = %
in this case:
12 / 15 = 0.8
0.8 * 100 = 80
your answer is 80%
I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
We know that the bottle of soft drink has a remaining
volume which is 2 / 3 of the original.
Since Jack drank 1 / 4 of the remaining volume, hence only
3 / 4 now finally remains, the total is:
(2 / 3) * (3 / 4) = 6 / 12 = 1 / 2
<span>Hence the bottle is now one half full</span>
