Answer: 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

100% - 40%

= 60% or 3/5 - first day

2/5 of 3/5 = 6/25 = 24% eaten

36% left - 2nd day

2/5 of 6/25 = 14.4% eaten

= 21.6 % left - 3rd day

2/5 of 21.6 = 8.64% eaten

= 12.96 % left - 4th day

2/5 of 12.96%  = 5.184 eaten

= 7.776% left - 5th day

2/5 of 7.776% = 3.1104% eaten

= 4.6656% left after the 6th day

rounded off to 5% after the 6th day

The ratio of boys to students in a class is 5 to 12. If their are 36 students, how many boys will be in the class??? Please help
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

15 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is 5 : 12

The 12 part of the ratio relates to the students in the class, that is 36

Divide 36 by 12 to find the value of one part of the ratio

36 ÷ 12 = 3 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus

5 × 3 = 15 ← number of boys in class

Here is the histogram of a data distribution. All class widths are
icang [17]

The median of the distribution is 4.

<h3>What is the median?</h3>

A histogram is used to represent data graphically. The histogram is made up of rectangles whose area is equal to the frequency of the data and whose width is equal to the class interval.

The median is the number at the center of the data set.

Arranging the numbers in the histogram in ascending order is: 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

  • Total numbers = 21
  • Median = 1/2 x (n + 1)

1/2 x 22 = 11th number  4
