Answer:
If $300 is 200%, half of that would be 100%. Thus, $150 is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:- 
Step-by-step explanation:
The given ration is 16 :40
In fraction, the above ratio can be written as : 
To write the above fraction in lowest terms, we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common divisor.
Since,
, Hence, 8 is the greatest common divisor of 16 and 40.
Now, divide the numerator and denominator by 8, we get

Answer:
(a) 
(b) 
(c) Jim initially had 48; Kirk initially had 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given


Solving (a): An equation for the amount they originally had.
From the question, we understand that j is 4 times as many as k.
Mathematically, this is:


Solving (b): Equation after Kirk wins
Initially Kirk had k.
To get the new expression, we add 18 to k.
This gives: 18 + k
In the same vein, Jim's number of chirps will reduce by 18.
Initially, Jim had j chirps (or 4k chirps)
To get the new expression, we subtract 18 from j.
This gives: j - 18
So, the equation is:

Solving (c): Number of chirps they started with.
In (b), we have:

Substitute 4k for j

Divide both sides by 3

Substitute 12 for k in
