If you want to easily find the solution you can use your calculator.
Just divide 77 by 110 and see the result.
77/110 = 0.7 = 7/10 = 70/100 = 70%
100% - 70% = 30%
Explanation
110*x=77
x=77/110, but the answer is not a percent
So 77/110 = ?/100 => ?=77*100/110=70 => 70%
But since 70% does not represent a percentage decreasement, we need to subtract it from the 100%
100% - 70% = 30%
Answer: 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
first get the total ratio; 2 + 5 = 7
so the fraction of blue marbles is 5/7
then assume the number of total marbles to be k
then use the expression;
5/7*k = 65
7*5/7 * k = 65*7
5k =455
5/5k = 455/5
k = 91
then calculate the number if red marbles from;
x = 2/7*91
x = 26
Therefore there are 26 red marbles.
Since 6 + 8 = 14 this is the longest that the third side can be.
The answer is B
