Answer: 30%
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to find the increase in numbers
26-20= 6
Now you find the percent. This means you're looking for the percent 6 is equal to when compared to 20. The easiest way is to divide the increase by the original number
6/20= 0.3
To convert that to percent, multiply it by 100
0.3 * 100= 30%
There was a 30% increase.
2 gallons divided between 9 people would equal 0.222222222 gallons per person
1.6 divided by x =4
we can exchange the 4 and the x
1.6 divided by 4 =x
.4 =x
So basically you use the ratio they have given you. You either multiply by 2 if image is enlarged or divide by 2 if it is reduced. (Keep in mind I got the 2 from your ratio : 1inch : 2inches) Therefore the find the original width, you multiply 10 by 2, giving you 20 inches.
