Answer: 1/4
Given : On average, Carson spends about 26% of his allowance each month on candy and soft drinks.
To Find : When creating a circle graph of what Carson does with his money, which of the following fractions would be the best to represent how much he spends on food?
If these are your Choices:
A) 1/4
B) 1/3
C) 3/4
D) 1/2
Solution:
To Convert fraction into % multiply by 100
(1/4) * 100 = 25 %
(1/3) * 100 = 33.33 %
(3/4) * 100 = 75 %
(1/2) * 100 = 50 %
Therefore 1/4 fraction best represent how much he spends on food

You need to figure out how many ways you can roll a sum of 9.
3 and 6, 4 and 5, 5 and 4, and 6 and 3. That's 4/36, or a 1/9 chance.
Alex has a 1/6 chance. Therefore, Alex is more likely to win.
Create a system if equations to solve this.
First equation:
25m + 24e = 220
Second equation:
m + e = 9
Then you must solve the second equation for a variable.
Change m + e = 9 to e = 9 - m.
Then substitute (9 - m) for e in the first equation.
So 25m +24e = 220 becomes 25m + 24(9 - m) = 220.
Now you can solve the first equation because the only variable in it is m.
25m + 24(9 - m) = 220 (Original equation)
25m + 216 - 24m = 220 (Distribute)
m + 216 = 220 (Combine like terms)
m = 4 (Simplify)
Now plug in 4 for m in the second equation.
m + e = 9 (Original equation)
(4) + e = 9 (Substitute)
e = 5 (Simplify)
m represents Math Books and e represents English Books, so Nicole purchased 4 Math Books and 5 English Books.
