The equation is already in Standard Form.
Answer:
The ratio in three ways are 500 : 125 or 100 : 25 or 4 : 1
Solution:
Given that,
Five hundred sixth-grade students were surveyed
Which means,
sixth-grade students = 500
125 had traveled on an airplane
What is the ratio of total sixth-grade students to the number of students who had traveled on an airplane?
Therefore,
total sixth-grade students : students traveled on airplane = 500 : 125
Ratio = 500 : 125
Reduce to lowest terms,
Divide both sides by 5
Ratio = 100 : 25
Further reduce to simplest terms,
Divide both sides by 25
Ratio = 4 : 1
Thus the ratio in three ways are 500 : 125 or 100 : 25 or 4 : 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so you know the first garden needs 1 and 2/5 bags of soil. Now first we need to find one fifth of that. So let's make this mied number into an improper fraction:
1 2/5 = 7/5
Ok now let's divide 7/5 by 5:
7/5 divided by 5/1 = 7/25
So Jared will need 7/25 bags of soil for his second garden, but we're STILL not done. now we have to add for the TOTAL.
1 2/5 + 7/25 > 7/5 + 7/25 > 7 x 5 = 35 > 35/25 + 7/25 = 42/25
_________
5x 5 = 25
Now let's simplify it to 1 and 17/25
