I am Lyosha [343]

500 people took the survey.

12 out of 15 people is 80% of the population. 12/15 = 0.80
Thus, 80% of the population prefers eating in the restaurant.

If 400 represents the people who prefers eating in the restaurant; then, 400 is the 80% of the population. To get the total population or 100%, we must divide 400 by 0.80 or 80%

400 / 0.80 = 500 people.

Out of the 500 people, 400 selected eating in the restaurant while the remaining 20% of the population or 100 people selected cooking at home.

A room has a rectangular floor that is 15 feet by 21 feet. What is the area of the floor in square yards ?

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Hey There!

Let's solve...

Here it is a rectangular floor with length =21 cm and width =15cm

$area = l \times w \\ = 21 \times 15 \\ = 315 {ft}^{2} \\ \\$

So now We need to convert it to yards square

$315ft^{2} \times \frac{ {1yd}^{2} }{ {9ft}^{2} } \\ \\ = \cancel{315ft^{2}} \: ^{35} \times \frac{ {1yd}^{2} }{ \cancel{9 {ft}^{2} }} \\ \\ = 35 {yd}^{2}$

So how this 9 ft^2 came??

Let's know

$ft \to \: yards \\ \\ 3ft = 1yd \\ \\ {3ft}^{2} = {1yd}^{2} \\ \\ \boxed{ {9ft}^{2} = {1yd}^{2}}$

Alex buys 2 1/2 pounds of grapes. He buys 1 1/4 times as many pounds of apples as grapes. How many pounds of apples does he buy?

galina1969 [7]

Given:
grapes = 2 1/2 pounds
apples = 1 1/4 times as many pounds as grapes.

For easier computation, let us convert these fractions into numbers with decimal places.

2 1/2 pounds = 2.50 pounds
1 1/4 times = 1.25

Apples = 2.50 pounds * 1.25 = 3.125 pounds of apples.

Or we still use fractions. We need to convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions.

2 1/2 = 5/2
1 1/4 = 5/4

5/2 * 5/4 = 5*5 / 2*4 = 25/8 is simplified to 3 1/8 pounds
