First you have to make all the fractions have a common denominator to add them so since 3/16 is the largest denominator you have to convert the others to have the denominator of 16. 1/8 = 2/16. 1/4 = 4/16. so if you add the numerators that’s 3 + 2 + 4 = 9. so the answer would be 9/16, and this cannot be simplified so it is your final answer:)
Here are the resulting percentages:
LEAH = 3.5%
RATHA = 2.3%
ED = 1.8%
CHRIS = 4.2%
MARY = 2.5%
You arrive at this answer by dividing the bonus by the wages
BONUS/WAGE = PERCENTAGE OF BONUS TO WAGE.
Chris had the greatest percentage of wages in his bonus
Answer:
40 students
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, one is given the ratio ( 8 : 3 ), since a ratio is another way of writing a fraction one can rewrite it as; 
(8) represent the number of students who want to learn about magnets, and (3) represents the number of students who want to learn about magic tricks.
In the problem, it is also given that 25 more students wanted to learn about magnets compared to magic tricks. If one uses the parameter (x) to represent the factor by which the fraction is reduced, then one can get the equation;
8x = 3x + 25
Use inverse operations to solve,
8x = 3x + 25
-3x
5x = 25
/5
x = 5
Substitute back in to find out how many students want to learn about magnets,
8x
= 8(5)
= 40
Answer:
ax^2 + bx + c = 0
Here is a specific example:
5x^2 - 3x + 2 = 0
In other words:
You have zero on the right.
On the left, you have the powers of “x” in descending order.
