Pierre ran 19 and 13/20 miles.

Given:
marathon length : 26 2/10 miles
pierre's length ran : 3/4 of the way.

Multiply the fractions.
Convert the marathon length from a mixed fraction into a fraction.
26 2/10 = ((26*10)+2)/10 = (260+2)/10 = 262/10

262/10 * 3/4 = (262*3) / (10*4) = 786/40 = 19 26/40

19 26/40 simplified to 19 13/20 miles

26 ÷ 2 = 13
40 ÷ 2 = 20

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

30% members have voted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of members voted = 3

Number of members didn't vote = 7

We need to find what percentage of people voted.

Solution:

First we will find the total number of members in the election.

Now we can say that;

The total number of members in the election is equal to sum of Number of members voted and Number of members didn't vote.

framing in equation form we get;

The total number of members in the election = $7+3=10$

Now we will find the percentage of people voted.

So we can say that;

Percentage of members voted can be calculated by dividing Number of members voted from The total number of members in the election and then multiplying by 100 we get;

Percentage of members voted = $\frac{3}{10}\times100 = 30\%$

Hence 30% members have voted.

Answer:

Thy bought 150 Sweatshirts (x) and 250 tshirts (y)

Step-by-step explanation:

35x + 25y = 11500

x + y = 400

-25 (x + y = 400) Multiply by -25 to get the y's to disappear when you add the two equations together

-25x - 25y = 10000

10x =1500

x = 150

Plug 150 in either equation for x to find y

150 + y = 400

y = 250
