Answer:

36 fishes

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Nanette goes fishing. Of the fish Nanette catches, 2/3 are catfish.

Let the total fraction of fish = 1

The fraction of fish that is not catfish is

1 - 2/3

= 1/3

Step 2

She catches 12 fish that are not catfish.

Let the total number of catfish = x

Hence,

1/3 × x = 12

Equation is given as:

x/3 = 12

Cross Multiply

x = 3 × 12

x = 36 fishes

The the total number of fish, x that Nanette catches is 36 fishes

10. Suppose you earn $7.25 per hour working part-time for a florist. What is the minimum number of hours you must work to earn a
UNO [17]
To make it like a simple, I'll make an equation. Let x be the number of hours because x represents unknown and we don't know the hours. Then your per hour is $7.25 right? so it would be x7.25. You want to know how many hours you will work so you can earn $125. The equation is simple as this x7.25 = 125.
All you have to do is divide the equation by 7.25 because that's your per hour.
It will look like this, <u>x7.25</u> = <u>125</u>   then the answer would be 17.24 hours.

Answer:

1.) Proportion is about the ratio of part of something out of a whole. Percentage is similar because it tells you the ratio of something out of a whole.

2.) No, tip amount is more than what the waiter usually receives

Step-by-step explanation:

2.) The amount of tip the waiter receives = 20% of total money.

therefore 20% of 47.20 = 20/100 * 47.20 = $9.44;

$11 > $9.44
