Answer:
x = 25% percent decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem we will use percentage calculation and make proportion:
Initial value 56 points is worth 100%
Second value 56 - 42 = 14 points of decrease is worth x%
56 : 14 = 100 : x
When we multiply external and internal members we get:
56 · x = 14 · 100 => x = 1400/56 = 25%
x = 25% percent decrease

Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the factors of each denominator
2 = 1*2
6 = 2*3
9 = 3*3
The least common multiple is
2*3*3 = 18
The least common denominator is 18
Answer:
3/83
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability: the ways to get the desired result / all of the possible results.
To solve, plug in the values they give.
There are 6 packages of wild-caught shrimp from Honduras. (The desired result)
Now, to find all of the possible results, add the total number of packages together.
27 + 40 + 52 + 13 + 6 + 28 = 166
6/166 = 3/83
Thus, the answer is a 3/83 chance of getting a package of wild-caught shrimp came from Honduras.
Given:
Matthew's dad hired him to paint 6 wooden patio chairs for $125.
Time taken by him to paint all of the chairs = 9 hours.
It takes the same amount of time to paint each chair.
To find:
The fraction of an hour does it take Matthew to paint one chair
Solution:
Total time = 9 hours
Total number of chairs = 6
Now, time taken by Matthew to paint one chair is


Therefore, Mattew takes
of an hour to paint one chair.
Thinking with a model: On dividing the total time by total number of chairs we get time taken by Mattew (in hours) to paint one chair. So, the result represents the fraction of an hour taken by Matthew to paint one chair.
