The r% of a quantity x is computed by dividing x in 100 parts, and considering r of such parts. So, the r% of the male is

and similarly, the r% of female is

The number of males decreased by this quantity, so now it is

and the number of female increased by this quantity, so now it is

we know that these two new counts are the same number, so we can build and solve the equality

Subtract 20 and add 0.3r from both sides:

Divide both sides by 0.5 to solve for r:

Let's check the answer
The 20% of 30 is
, while the 20% of 20 is 4. So, we are stating that
which is true because both expressions evaluate to 24.
Answer:
2 terms
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a. 24
b. 2
c. 0.0833 = 8.33%
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
The first "slot" of person to arrive has 4 possibilities, then the second "slot" will have 3 possibilities, as one has already arrived, then the third "slot" has 2 possibilities, and the fourth "slot" has just 1 possibility.
So, multiplying all these combinations, we have 4*3*2*1 = 24 possible ways they can arrive
b.
If the first and the last person are already "locked", we just have possibilities for the second and third person. The second will have 2 possibilities (Sergio or Tyrone), and the third will have only 1 (the person that wasn't the second between Sergio and Tyrone). So, the number of possibilities is 2*1 = 2
c.
If we have 2 cases where Dawn is first and Jim is last, from a total of 24 possible cases, the probability is 2/24 = 1/12 = 0.0833 = 8.33%
