Answer:60 male staff

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, there are 96 female staff. The ratio of male to female is 3:4. We’re going to use a proportion which looks like this. 3/4 = x/96. X is a variable that takes the place of the male staff since we don’t know what it is. Now, the question is what do we do to get from 4 to 96. So 96/4 = 24, so 4 x 20 = 96. To keep this ratio equivalent whatever you do to the top you have to do to the bottom so 4 x 20 = 96 and 3 x 20 = 60. So there are 60 male staff.

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{1 \frac{2}{15}}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf{1 \frac{7}{10}  \times  \frac{2}{3} }

Convert the mixed number into improper fraction

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{10 \times 1 + 7}{10}  \times  \frac{2}{3}}}

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{17}{10}  \times  \frac{2}{3}}}

To multiply one fraction by another, multiply the numerators for the numerator, and multiply the denominator for its denominator and reduce the fraction obtained after multiplication into lowest term

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{17 \times 2}{10 \times 3}}}

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{34}{30}}}

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{17}{15} }}

Convert the improper fraction into mixed number

\longrightarrow{ \sf{1 \frac{2}{15} }}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

First order equations include linear equations. In the coordinate system, the linear equations are defined for lines. A linear equation in one variable is one in which there is a homogeneous variable of degree 1 (i.e., only one variable). Multiple variables may be present in a linear equation. Linear equations in two variables, for example, are used when a linear equation contains two variables. Examples of linear equations include 2x - 3 = 0, 2y = 8, m + 1 = 0, x/2 = 3, and 3x - y + z = 3.

Total books borrowed = 8+4 = 12

No. of non - fiction books = 7

No. of fiction books = 12 -7

                                    = 5
