I fear that there is an error copying your assignment.
65% of the students walked. Are all of the other students on buses? Are there both public buses AND private buses?
Assuming that you need to know BOTH kinds of buses, try this:
65% of the students walked, so since 100% - 65% = 35% then this means that 35% of the students were on buses.
Since we know that there are 360 more walkers than bus riders, then one equation we know is: 65% of S = 360 + 35% of S (let S = total # of students)
.65 S = 360 + .35 S
<u> - .35 S </u> = <u> - .35 S</u> Subtract .35 S from both sides
<u> .30 S </u> = <u> 360</u> Divide both sides by .30 (or .3)
.30 .30
S = 1,200 so we know that this is the total number of students, but that is not what was asked.
They want to know how many are on buses and specifically how many are on public buses, if I read this correctly.
Since the walkers = 65% of 1,2000 and we know of means TIMES, then
.65 (1,200) = 780 walkers
1,200 total students minus 780 walkers = 420 bus riders
Now, if there is not a misprint and we really have to figure out the public bus riders as compared to the private bus riders, then remember the ratio from above in the question: 4 bus: 3 public buses
Now if I read this right, that means that 3/4ths of the bus riders were on public buses
so 3/4 of 420 means 3/4 times 420 = 3 times 105 = 315 public bus riders (which coincidentally leaves 105 private bus riders, but since they are private we don't know much about them. Ha-Ha..... I made a lame joke.)
So your answer is 315 public bus riders
Answer:
Kimiya has 48 marbles, Ramneet has 12 marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
kimiya has 4x marbles ramneet has x marbles then 4x - 18 = x + 18 because if you give 18 marbles from kimiya to ramneet then you subtract 18 from kimiya and add 18 to ramneet by solving the equation you will get x as 12.So kimiya has 48 marbles, ramneet has 12 marbles.

The first thing we must do for this case is to calculate the scale factor.
For this, we make the relationship between two parallel sides.
We have then:
Substituting values we have:
We are now looking for the value of AB
We have then:
Substituting values:
Answer:
The scale factor is:
The value of AB is:
Subtract what has already been loaded from total amount allowed:
23500 - 9700 = 13,800
Divide the amount left by the weight of each crate:
13,800 / 70 = 197.14
They can load 197 crates.
