Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
If 1/5 can for 1 (each) room, then:
for 51 rooms, (51*1/5)=10.2 rooms.
Round to nearest whole number since you can't just paint 0.2 of a room: answer = 10
A.) First, you find the total sales. $2030 + $1540 + $1800 = $5370. Then, divide each with the total. The answer would be:
Lola: 203/537
Ahmed: 154/537
Tommy: 60/179
b.) Divide 100 by 3 for equal shares. Each person receives $33.3.
No, Perry is not using the correct ratio, because 15:17 is not equivalent to 5:7
15 divided by 3 is indeed 5 but divided 17 by 3 does not give you 7, nor a whole number.
I hope this helps.
