To figure this out you can do 7.2/8.2, because you are trying to figure out how much of the total was used, and percentages would not be more than 100%. Doing this you would get ~.878. To convert this to a percent, you would just multiply it by 100, which would give you 87.8%. The question states to round to the nearest whole percent, leaving you with 88%. This means that 88% of the revenue was spent.
Hope that helped, don't be shy to comment on this if you have any questions about my explanation :)
Since the distance is 560 miles and the bus goes 268 miles per hour, the answer can be given as:
If 268=1 hour
560=?
560/268*1 hour =2(rounded to nearest ones)
Therefore it will take the train approximately 2 hours to travel between both cities.
Answer:
x = 1\2 and y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
8x + 3y = 4 * 5\3
14x - 5y = 7 * 1
40\3x + 5y = 20\3 -------- 1
14x - 5y = 7 ----------------- 2
add equation 1 and 2
82\3x = 41\3
x = <u>4</u><u>1</u><u> </u> <u>3</u>
3 * 82
x = 1\2
subtitute 1\2 for x in equation 2
14\2 - 5y = 7
7 - 5y = 7
5y = 7 - 7
y = 0\5
y = 0
thus x = 1\2 and y = 0
Answer: 40
Step-by-step explanation:
I can see the answer is 40, but let's try to figure out how to do it.
I like to use the rule of 3. Let's put the number of passes on the left side and the number of games on the right side.
''x'' represents the number of passes in 15 games.
Solve for x;
The best way to put them into a number line is to make sure that they've all got the same denominator, which in this case, will be 24, as this is the lowest common multiple of 3,4 and 8. You will then need to multiply these fractions accordingly. The first one (1/4) will need to be multiplied by 6 to get a denominator of 24, so this will then give you a result of 6/24. The second one (2/3), will need to be multiplied by 8, which will then give you a result of 16/24. The third one (3/4)will also need to be multiplied by 6, giving you 18/24. The final one (6/8) will need to be multiplied by 3, giving you 18/24. You will then need to put these in order, which will be- 1/4, 2/3, 3/4, and 6/8.
The alternative method is to turn these into decimals- 1/4 is equivalent to 25%, which is equal to 0.25. 2/3 is equivalent to 66.66%, which is equivalent to 0.66. 3/4 is equivalent to 75%, which is equal to 0.75. 6/8 is also equivalent to 75%, which is equal to 0.75, you can then easily line them up this way.
Hope this has been able to help you
