Answer:
<em>In the second group the individual members received a larger fraction of the prize money</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Division by Sharing</u>
A certain amount M can be evenly split among n parties by performing a division M/n.
The first group of six friends earned $45 and they split it evenly, i.e. the same amount goes to each member. Each of them received $45/6= $7.50 apiece.
The second group of four friends won the second-place prize of $35 and they split it evenly also. Each member received $35/4=$8.75.
By comparing both numbers, we see that 8.75 is a bigger fraction of 35 that 7.50 is of 45. Each member from the second-place price will receive more money than the first group.
We can conclude in the second group the individual members received a larger fraction of the prize money
Answer:
3x
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer is D, 16 pages per minute. A unit rate is a ratio of something to one; in this case, the ratio is 16:1, or 16 pages to 1 minute. To get the unit rate for this problem, divide both numbers by 5 to get how many pages will be printed per 1 minute. 80/5 = 16, so the copier prints 16 pages in 1 minute. Answer choices A and B are not unit rates, and answer choice C is the incorrect unit rate.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Original Salary: 
Increase in 3%: 
Step-by-step explanation:
So when something increases by x%, the new value is (100+x)% the original value. So 6255, is 105% the original value. This means to find the original value, we have to find the number that has 6255 as 105% of it's value. Whenever you try to find x% of a number, you multiply it by the decimal value of the percentage, which is found by dividing by 100. So to find x%, you do: 
where o = original value, x=percent. In this case the percent is 105%, which when divided by 100 is 1.05. So this gives us the equation: 
. This is his original salary. You need to do this process, do not make the mistake of subtracting 5% from 6255. This is because 5% of 6255 does not equal the 5% of the original value. 5% of 6255 should be greater than 5% of the original value, since the new value is an increase of 5%. So since we have his original salary, we can calculate the salary increase had it been 3%. to do this we multiply by 1.03 (103% divided by 100). This gives us the equation:
