Step-by-step explanation:
Percent is parts out of 100 so
45%=45/100=9/20
'of' means multiply
18 =9/20 times something
multiply both sides by 20/9 to clear fraction
360/9=something
40=something
the value is 40
Answer:
4 rows of 7 plants each
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of plants in each row between 5 and 12 requires us to find the factors of the total 28.
28 has factors 1,28 and 2,14 and 4,7. Only 4,7 has a number between 5 and 12. There are 4 rows of 7 plants.
Answers:
1.) 18 lemons
2.) 80 minutes
Explanation:
Porportions are a lot like fractions. For the first question, you can make the fraction 6/8, or 3/4 simplified. This means that for every 8 cups of water, you need 6 lemons.
Then, to find the amount of lemons you need if you have 24 cups of water, you need to think about what×8= 24. If we divide 24 by 8, we get 3, so if we multiply our fraction by 3/3, we should get the answer.
If we do 6/8 × 3/3, we get 18/24. This means that we need 18 lemons if we were to use 24 cups of water.
For the next question, our fraction 15/60, for 15 cakes baked in 60 minutes. Now we need to divide 20 cakes by 15.
This question is a little different from the first one because there will be a decimal involved. If we do 20/15, we get 1⅓. This means that this time, we will multiply 15/60 by (1⅓)/(1⅓).
If we multiply 60 by 1⅓, we get 80, which is the number of minutes needed to bake 20 cakes.
Hope this helps :)
