If these are your Choices:
A) 1/4
B) 1/3
C) 3/4
D) 1/2
Solution:
To Convert fraction into % multiply by 100
(1/4) * 100 = 25 %
(1/3) * 100 = 33.33 %
(3/4) * 100 = 75 %
(1/2) * 100 = 50 %
Therefore 1/4 fraction best represent how much he spends on food
If you would like to know the equation for the above expression, you can calculate this using the following steps:
x ... the number
x * 1/3 inches = 5/6 inches
x * 1/3 = 5/6 /*3/1
x = 5/6 * 3
x = 5/2 = 2 1/2
The correct result would be x * 1/3 inches = 5/6 inches
Answer:
B)
Step-by-step explanation:
Because it says that Alex wants to spend exactly $30 so you want to have 30 as the total ( = 30 )
and it says 18 plus, you only add 18 one time ( 18 + )
and then it says 0.12 per mile, so you need to do something times 0.12 + 18 and get exactly 30. so you do ( 0.12x ) in this case we're not solving it we're just doing the equation so it's just 0.12x instead of a specific number
Put it all together and you get 18 + 0.12x = 30
Hope this helps dude
