kkurt [141]2 years ago

Hi! I'm happy to help!

Our town is composed of 2,000 people. Of those 2,000 people, 4/5 of them are middle class. The word 'of' usually means multiplication when it is in a word problem. So, we will multiply 2,000 by 4/5. When multiplying a whole number, we just multiply it by the numerator (top) and leave the denominator. (bottom)

2,000×4

8,000

8,000/5

Fractions are just a different way of putting division, so we can change this to a division problem:

8,000÷5=

1,600

1,600 of the people are middle class.

I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D

A builder needs to tile a 7 foot by 8 foot room with one-foot square tiles. how many tiles will she need?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
I believe that she will need 56 square tiles. You get this by doing 7 times 8 which is 56. Then, since each tile is a one-foot square tile, you would need 56 tiles to cover the whole floor.

Membership to a national running club is shown in the table. Which answer describes the average rate of change from Year 3 to Ye
Nataly [62]

Answer:

Membership decreased by an average of 6,600 people per year from Year 3 to Year 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change from Year 3 to Year 5 will be given by the slope of the line joining the points;

(3, 96.8) and (5, 83.6)

The slope of a line given two points is calculated as;

( change in y)/( change in x)

In this case y is the number of members for a given year x.

average rate of change = (83.6-96.8)/(5-3)

                                        = -6.6

Since the number of members is given in thousands, we have;

-6,600

The negative sign implies a decrease in the number of members. Therefore, membership decreased by an average of 6,600 people per year from Year 3 to Year 5

Sara receives her cell phone bill on the first day of each month. This month, she exceeded her allowed number of minutes for the
Tamiku [17]
In a short answer, to find average you need to add it all up and divide by the number of things you added. Ex. say I want to find the average for my english class, my grades are 90, 98, 100, 87, and 70. I would start by adding them up  to get 445. then since i have 5 grades, i would divide the sum 445 by 5 and get an 89 as my average. 
         
         (Everything in this answer is example only, not my real grades.)
