You're nearly there. Just some more steps.
557 * x = 594 tells us
x = 594 / 557 (divide both sides by 557)
x ≈ 1.066427
When we've found this number we must realise the following:
the '1' in this answer is the 100% the car fixing costs (without taxes)
the '0.66427' stands for the tax rate.
To find the tax rate we multiply 0.66427 by 100, which gives us:
0.66427 * 100 = 6.6427 ≈ 7
So, rounded to the nearest %, the tax rate is 7%
T / 3/4 ; t = 9 3/4
9 3/4 / 3/4
9 3/4 = 39/4
39/4 / 3/4
39/4 x 4/3
39 x 4 = 156
4 x 3 = 12
156/12 / 4/4 = 39/3 = 13
Answer:
White = 1.67 gallons
Blue = 0.33 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
White : blue = 3 : 1
Total ratio = 3 + 1
= 4
Gallons = 2
White = 3 /4 × 2
= 6 /4
= 3/2 gallons
Blue = 1 / 4 × 2
= 2/4
= 1/2
If he later decide to dilute the color to a ratio of 5:1
Total ratio = 5 + 1
= 6
Total gallons = 2
White = 5 / 6 × 2
= 10/6
= 5/3 gallons
Or
= 1.67 gallons
Blue = 1 / 6 × 2
= 2 / 6
= 1/3 gallons
Or
= 0.33 gallons
57,800 is 23.8% of the total number of registered doctors.
To find out the number of registered doctors, we divide the number of female doctors by 23.8% as a decimal (which is just 0.238):
57,800 ÷ 0.238 = 242,857
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
So there are 242,857 registered doctors.
