Use the proportion equation. Cross multiply. Answer is 10.4%
752 second graders went to
see Hansel and Gretel on
Friday. 25% of the students
went to the bathroom during
the movie. How many kids
went to the bathroom?
<span>for the first part, realize that the hour and minute hands are moving at different rates; in one hour, the minute hands moves all the way around the face of the clock, and thus moves a total of 360 degrees or 2 pi radians; the hour hand moves only 1/12 away around the clock, so covers only 30 degrees or Pi/6 radians.
Now, the LINEAR distance traveled by the tip of each hand is also determined by the length of the hand. In the case of the minute hand, it sweeps out a circle of radius 10 cm, so traces out a circle of radius 10 cm. Since the circumference of a circle is 2*pi*r, the minute hand (remember it made one complete cycle) covers a distance of 2*pi*10cm=20 Pi cm
The hour hand covers only 1/12 a circle, but that circle is only 6 cm in radius, so the distance traveled by the tip of the minute hand is:
1/12 *[2 *pi*r]=1/12*[12*pi]=pi
so the difference is 19pi
for the last part, you should draw a diagram of the two hands, the minute hand is 10 cm in length, the hour hand is 6 cm in length, and they are 30 degrees apart...from that drawing, see if you can figure out the remaining leg of the triangle you can form from them
good luck</span><span>

0.88......ones (decimal), tenths, hundredths
so 8 is in the tenths place....8/10
