Answer: 56%

Step-by-step explanation: To write the fraction 28/50 as a percent, remember that a percent is a ratio that compares a number to 100.

So we need to find a fraction that's equivalent

to 28/50 that has a 100 in the denominator.

To do this, we set up a proportion.

So we have 28/50 = n/100.

To find the value of n, we first find the fraction that

is equivalent to 28/50 that has a denominator of 100.

If we multiply both the numerator and denominator of

28/50 by 2, we can see that 28/50 = 56/100.

So 28/50 is equal to 56/100 or 56%.

The length of a rectangle is 4 more than its width. The area of the rectangle is 21m2 . What is the measure of the width?

iris [78.8K]

Length(l)= 4+ w
Width(w)=w
Area(A)= 21m^2

so keep in mind Area= Length × width

A= l×w
21=(4+w)(w)
21= 4w+ 2w
21=6w
w=3.5

The width is 3.5m

so the answer is about 4m

The question is incomplete. Below you will find the missing figure.

Two friends, Andrew and Liz, are playing a game using this spinner. If the

spinner lands on region 2 or 3, Andrew wins. If it lands on region 4, Liz wins. If it lands on any other region, neither wins. Is this a fair game?

A. Yes. Each friend has a 1/4 probability of winning.

B. Yes. Each friend has a 1/6 probability of winning.

C. No. Andrew has a probability of 1/4 winning and Liz has a probability of 1/6 winning.

D. No. Andrew has a probability of 1/3 winning and Liz has a probability of 1/4 winning.

The correct option is Option A: Yes. Each friend has 1/4 probability of winning.

Probability is the possibility of an event to happen which is the ratio of no. favorable outcomes and no. of total outcomes.

P = no. of favorable outcome/ total no. of outcome

Here given in the question,

If the spinner touches region 2 or 3, Andrew wins

If the spinner touches region 4, Liz wins.

This is fair play because both have the same size of region for winning.

If we cut the circle into 8 pieces,

as region 1 is the sum of 2 sub-parts of the circle,

possibility of spinner touching region 1= 2/8= 1/4

possibility of spinner touching the small region = 1/8

So the possibility of the spinner touching the region 2or 3= 1/8+1/8= 2/8= 1/4

Hence the possibility of Andrew wins= possibility of the spinner touching region 1= 1/4

possibility of Liz wins= possibility of the spinner touching the region 2 or 3= 1/4

Therefore the correct option is Option A: Yes. Each friend has 1/4 probability of winning.

The longest side in a right triangle is 24 cm, and the second longest side is 20 cm. Find the length of the shortest side

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

13.3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem:

hyp² = (2nd longest side)² + (shortest side)². Here the numbers are:

(24 cm)² = (20 cm)² + (shortest side)², or

576 - 400 = 176 = hyp²

Taking the square root of both sides, we get (shortest side) = 13.3 cm

Find the least number which when divisible by 20, 24, 32 and 38 leaves a remainder 5 in cach case

Olegator [25]

Answer:

18245

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to use L.C.M,

L.C.M(20,24,32,38)

2|20,24,32,38

2| 10 ,12 ,16 ,19

2| 5 , 6 , 8 , 19

2| 5 , 3 , 4 , 19

2| 5 , 3 , 2 , 19

L.C.M = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 3 x 19

= 18240

Now for each case remainder is 5,

So the number is 18240+5

=> 18245
