The <u>correct answer</u> is:
18.
Explanation:
There were 303 people surveyed total.
There were 64 people with brown eyes and black hair; that makes the percentage of the population 64/303 = 21.12% ≈ 21%.
There were 9 people with blue eyes and black hair; that makes the percentage of the population 9/303 = 2.97% ≈ 3%.
This means the percentage of students with brown eyes and black hair was greater than the percentage of students with blue eyes and black hair by:
21-3 = 18%.
The amount of money Ben had to begin with after spending 1/6 and 1/2 of it is 57 dollars.
<h3>How to find the how much money he had with an equation?</h3>
let
x = amount he had to begin with
He spent 1/6 of his money on a burger, fries, and a drink. Therefore,
amount spent on burger, fries, and a drink = 1 / 6 x
Hence,
amount he had left = x - 1 / 6 x =6x - x /6 = 5 / 6 x
Then he spent half of the money he had left.
1 / 2(5 /6 x) = 5 + 8.25 + 10.50
5 / 12 x = 23.75
cross multiply
5x = 23.75 × 12
5x = 285
divide both sides by 5
x = 285 / 5
x = 57
Therefore, the amount of money he have to begin with is $57.
