Answer:
2/3 is the fraction of students who are boys.
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, a fraction consists of two parts: The denominator and the numerator. The denominator is the whole, while the number is a part of the whole (and sometimes above).
1. Since in your question, there are 24 students in total in the class, the denominator will be 24.
2. You said that 16 of them are boys, so 16 is the numerator.
3. In a fraction, it will be 16/24.
4. 16/24 can be simplified into 2/3 since both 16 and 24 can be divided by 8.
So our final answer is 2/3.
Multiply 7 by 9 and you will get 63 which is x.
36% of 51,000 is 18,360, so 51,000 - 18,360 = 32,640

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for compound annual interest is A = P(1 + r)t where
A = Accumulated or final amount (double $500 = $1000)
P = Principal or original amount ($500)
r = Rate as a decimal (0.08)
t = Time in years
1000 = 500(1 + 0.08)t
2 = 1.08t
Take the logarithm of both sides. I prefer the natural logarithm ln, but if you're more comfortable with base 10 logs they will work just as well
ln(2) = ln(1.08t)
ln(2) = t*ln(1.08)
t = ln(2)/ln(1.08)
t = 9.0065 years
Check: 500*1.089.0065 = $1000
