your profile says you're 22 but I find that painfully challenging to believe. She knits 5 scarves in 2 hours. Divide 10 by 2, you get 5. 5x5 is 25. It's C. You shouldn't need help. This is sad.
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
theoretical probability of a coin flip is always 50% heads, 50% tails
Answer: D! :)
Explanation:
18 = 3/5(30)
18 = 18
Assuming the man works 8 hours straight without breaks:
25% is the same as 1/4 of something.
So, we just have to figure out what 1/4 (one quarter) of 8 equals.
You can think of it as a pizza cut into 8 slices. One slice is equivalent to one hour for the patrolman.
If we take away 1/2 (half) of the pizza, we have 4 slices, right? Since we start with 8 slices, half of that equals 4 slices. In other words, 50% (half) of the pizza = 4 slices.
Now, 25% (one quarter) of the pizza will equal half of what is left:
If we know that 50%=4 slices (or 4 hours), then 25% must be 2 slices (or 2 hours).
That's it! 25% of 8 hours = 2 hours.
***So, the patrolman spends 2 hours each day completing paperwork.***
Lets check our work:
We know 8 hours (or 8 slices)= 100%
(We know this because
8 slices = 1 whole pizza, or 100% of a pizza. Similarly,
8 hours = 1 whole shift or 100% of the man's shift ).
So
25% + 25% + 25% + 25% = 100%
If 100% of the mans shift = 8 hours:
2+2+2+2 = 8
It checks out!
Hope this helps!
Because the triangles are similar the ratio of all the sides would be the same. So you need to find the ratio of the common sides and then use that ratio to find the unkown side.
In this picture sides FG = 52, FV would be the same side and is 24.
Dividing 24/52 = 0.461, so the unkown side WV would be 0.444 of it's common side HG.
HG = 39
39 * 0.461= 18.
The answer is C. 18
