Answer:
If I did my math correctly, They washed 15 cars on Sunday.
Step-by-step explanation:
50 cars = 100%
Therefore 1 car would be 2% because 50 is half of 100.
So because 30% would be 2 times the amount of cars, we divide 30 by 2, giving us 30% = <u>15 cars on Sunday</u>
With this information, we can take away 15 from 50 giving us 35 cars which is equal to 70% on Saturday
Here is some extra data:
10% = 5 cars
20% = 10 cars
30% = 15 cars
40% = 20 cars
50% = 25 cars
60% = 30 cars
70% = 35 cars
80% = 40 cars
90% = 45 cars
100% = 50%
Basically, every 10% is +5 cars
Tree 3 diagram is the answer
Subtract 9x from 23x yields 14x. This was done by subtracting algebraically the variables.
It is basically saying that you need to write 3 1/2 as ounces and pounds but in whole numbers. The answer is 3 pounds and 8 ounces.
(13 + x)/(50 - x ) = (2/1)
Cross Multiply
2(50-x) = 1(13 + x)
100 - 2x = 13 + x
add 2x to both sides
100 -2x + 2x = 13 + x + 2x
100 = 13 + 3x
Subtract 13 from both sides
100 - 13 = 13 - 13 + 3x
87 = 3x
divide both sides by 3
29 = x
(13 + 29)/(50-29) = 42/21 = 2 to 1 ratio
