= 22.5 / 100
= 45 / 200
Divide top and bottom by 5:-
= 9 / 40 answer
60% of the total (30) can swim
60% of 30 = (60/100)*30 = 0.60*30 = 18
So 18 children can swim
This means 30-18 = 12 cannot swim
---------------------------------------------------------
An alternative is to do it this way:
We know 60% can swim so that means 40% cannot swim.
Notice how 100% - 60% = 40%
Or in other words, the 60% and 40% add to 100%. This is because we have two choices: either the person can swim or cannot swim
Since 40% cannot swim, this means
40% of 30 = (40/100)*30 = 0.40*30 = 12
and we get the same result as before
---------------------------------------------------------
Final Answer: 12
78 = 1.50x + 2.50x + 4(x/2)) + 3((x/2) + 1))
78 = 4x + 4(x/2) + 3((x/2)+1)
78 = 4x + 2x + (3(x/2) + 3)
78 = 6x + 1.5x + 3
75 = 7.5x
10 = x
Mr. Abernathy bought 10 wrenches at $1.50, 10 wrenches at $2.50, 5 wrenches at $4, and 6 wrenches at $3.
i'm sorry but can you put in more details as to what each item costs, if it is just variables then it should be something like b times the amount bought plus c times the amount bought. without the costs i cannot actually give you how much she spent
D is the answer i think it is at least
