Answer:
1000
Step-by-step explanation:
If the number of protesters per minute remains a constant, then you could write the proportion ...
p/12 = 177/2.1
Multiplying by 12 gives ...
p = 12(177/2.1) ≈ 1011.4
Here, minutes are given to 2 significant figures, and the initial count is given to 3 significant figures. The best you can hope for is that your estimate is good to 3 significant figures:
1010 protesters
It is probably sufficient to report the number to 2 significant figures*:
1000 protesters
_____
* Unfortunately, with a number like 1000, the only way you can tell it has 2 significant figures is to report it as 1.0×10³ or 10. hundreds. The trailing zeros are usually not considered significant.
Answer:
- 64%: 1024
- 96%: 1536
- 132%: 2112
- 232%: 3712
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>64% of 1600</u>
64% of 1600 = 2 × (32% of 1600) = 2×512
64% of 1600 = 1024
<u>96% of 1600</u>
96% of 1600 = 3 × (32% of 1600) = 3×512
96% of 1600 = 1536
<u>132% of 1600</u>
132% of 1600 = (100% of 1600) + (32% of 1600) = 1600 + 512
132% of 1600 = 2112
<u>232% of 1600</u>
232% of 1600 = (100% of 1600) + (132% of 1600) = 1600 +2112
232% of 1600 = 3712
one tip:
Example: 4 - (-3)
it instantly becomes positive because the negatives are close to each other as shown.
hope that helps :)
