Answer:
28 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of students in cooking club = x
Number of students in fencing club = 1/5 x
Number of students in chess club = 2(1/5)x
Since, There are 42 more students in the cooking club than in the chess club
Then ;
Number of students in chess club = Number of students in cooking club - 42
2(1/5)x = x - 42
(2/5)x - x = - 42
(2/5)x - x = - 42
-0.6x = - 42
x = 42 / 0.6
x = 70
Hence, number of students in chess club :
(2/5) * 70 = 28
If this is not a typo, and you mean 15.16 as in 15 and 16 hundredths, we can express this into a mixed number.
Mixed numbers are a whole number with the remainder of that number as a fraction.
For example, 1.25 as a decimal = 1 1/4 as a mixed number.
Since we already have our whole number, 15, we need to know what 16 hundredths is simplified as a fraction.
Currently, our mixed number is 15 16/100.
To simplify this, we need to find a common factor that 16 and 100 share.
Since they are both even numbers, let's divide by 2.
16/2 = 8
100/2 = 50.
Our new mixed number is 15 8/50.
Currently our fraction is still even, so divide by 2 again.
8/2 = 4
50/2 = 25
Your new mixed number is 15 4/25.
4 and 25 have no common factors, so the fraction is simplified.
Your answer is:
15.16 is 15 4/25 as a mixed number.
