Answer: The space given up by the students is 1/4 of the total space.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:
<em> Students must give up half of the exhibit space to the other school.</em> So, we have to divide 5/10 by 2.
5/10 ÷ 2/1 = (5x1 ) / (10 x2 ) = 5 /20
Simplified (by 5) = 1 /4
The space given up by the students is 1/4 of the total space.
Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
All you need to do is find s, and get it by itself.
So, divide 9 by 252.
252/9= 28
s= 28
I hope this helps!
