The charity should collect 600 cans of food

Number of families that the charity asked to donate food = 150

80% of the families donated 5 cans of food

Number of families that actually donated 5 cans of food = (80/100) x 150

Number of families that actually donated 5 cans of food = 0.8 x 150

Number of families that actually donated 5 cans of food  = 120

Number of cans donated by each family = 5

Number of cans donated by 120 families = 5 x 120

Number of cans donated by 120 families = 600

The charity should collect 600 cans of food

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The street light is 20 feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question depends on a proportion. Keep your height of the object in one ratio and the length of the shadow in the other.

25/x = 75/60      Notice the height of the structure is on the left. The length of the shadow is on the right. Cross multiply

75x =  60 * 25     Combine the right

75x = 1500          Divide by 75

x = 1500/75

x = 20

The street light is 20 feet tall.

What is 5/7 minus 1/2 equal to in like units
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

3/14

Step-by-step explanation:

5/7 minus 1/2 is 5/7 - 1/2

5/7 and 1/2 are both called proper fractions. 5 and 1 in each fraction are called the numerator while 7 and 2 are called denominators

5/7 - 1/2

Step one

Find the lowest common multiple (LCM) of the denominators of each fractions

Multiples of 7

7 x 1 = 7

7 x 2 = 14

7 x 3 = 21

Multiples of 2

2 x 1 = 2

2 x 2 = 4

2 x 3 = 6

2 x 4 = 8

2 x 5 = 10

2 x 6 = 12

2 x 7 = 14

The lowest common multiple of 2 and 7 is 14

Step 2

The LCM of 2 and 7 becomes the common denominator for both fractions.

14/7 = 2

14/2 = 7

5/7 - 1/2 = [2(5) - 7(1)]/14 = (10 - 7)/14

= 3/14
