Suppose that 16 inches of wire cost 80 cents.

At the same rate, how many inches of wire can be bought for 55 cents?

16 : 80 = x : 55

x = 16 * 55 : 80

x = 11

Of the 250 students at Moreland middle school, 80% ride the bus to school. Monica wants to know the number of students that ride

LekaFEV [45]

You would put 80 x
—- = ——
250 100

So those are fractions^
The first thing you do here is cross-multiply. (It doesn’t matter which sides you multiply together first)
So 250 times x= 250x
Then cross multiply 80 and 100 to get:
8,000
You now have ur new equation:
250x=8,000
The next thing you do here is divide both sides by 250, since 250 is the number with a variable in it (aka “x”)
You then get:
32 students as you’re final answer.
I hope that helped you understand !
