If 4/5 of the population of a certain town is

kkurt [141]3 years ago
8 0

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

If I have the full price of an item, & the discounted price of the same item, how do I find the discount percentage?
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Subtract the discount price from the full price. Divide the amount of change by the original price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Example: Original price = $40 Sale price = $30

$40-$30= 10

10/40= 1/4

1/4 = .25 or 25%

The distance between Vancouver and Winnipeg is approximately 1850 km in a straight line. The distance on a map is 3.7 cm. Write
yKpoI14uk [10]
3.7cm on the map represents 1850km in reality

3.7cm : 1850km

1cm : 1850/3.7 km

1cm : 500km

Scale statement for map is :          1cm : 500km.

That is 1cm on map represents 500km.

1cm : 500km.       Recall 1km = 1000m = 100 000cm

1cm : 500* 100000cm

1cm : 50 000 000cm

1: 50 000 000.

Scale factor is 50 000 000.
