Answer:
Sorry
Step-by-step explanation:
Sorry i need the points.
If you do the proportion, you have to put 1/5 = 20/100. The 20 represents the percentage. Then you have to say to yourself that how many time 5 goes to 100, well its x20 then if we multiply 1 x 20 we'll get 20. So, he is correct, 1/5 = 20%. Remember what number we think of when we hear the word percent, the number is 100.
Let x=the first number
Then x+7=second number
And 4(x+7)+2=third number (2 more than 4 times the second)
Now we are told that:
x+(x+7)+(4(x+7)+2)=85 get rid of parentheses
x+x+7+4x+28+2=85 simplify
6x+37=85 subtract 37 from each side
6x+37-37=85-37
6x=48
x=8---first number
x+7=8+7=15 second number
4(x+7)+2=4*15+2=62 third number

8+15+62=85
85=85
In a bag of snack mix:
n = nuts d = dried fruit
n = 744g d = ???g
Ratio Nuts/Dried fruit = 12/13
This basically means that if the mix was divided in 25 parts, 12 parts would be nuts and 13 would be dried fruits
If 744 is 12 parts then 744/12 is 1 part
744/12 = 62
1 part = 62g
there are 13 parts of dried fruit
13 x 62 = 806
744g of nuts + 806g of dreid fruit = 1550g
Answer: A batch of snack mix weigh 1550g, or 1.55kg
hope it helps :)
