Answer:
The sports shop has 21 part-time employees.
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:
What is 25% of 84?
.Y is 25% of 84
Equation: Y = P% * X
Solving our equation for Y
Y = P% * X
Y = 25% * 84
Converting percent to decimal:
p = 25%/100 = 0.25
Y = 0.25 * 84
Y = 21
Or another quicker way....
50% is half of the whole, and 25 is half of 50.
84/2/2
equals 21 too, I don't recommend to use it as row form.
Before we solve, let's define what a scale factor is. A scale factor is a certain number that can be multiplied or divided by to get a smaller or bigger image that's similar to the current image.
We have 48 by 36 as our original.
It has been reduced to an 8 by 6.
This means we must divide.
Before we get into any complicated ideas, if any, let's try a simple trick.
Divide 48 by 8 and 36 by 6. This should give us a scale factor if they give us the same quotients.
48 / 8 = 6
36 / 6 = 6
It turns out our scale factor is 1/6 (the same as dividing by 6).
The answer cannot be 1/8 because 36 / 8 doesn't give us 8 as a quotient.
The answer also cannot be 6 because we'd have to mutliply our current sides by 6 to get the new image, which it was the opposite.
By elimination and work shown, A.) 1/6 is the correct answer.
I hope this helps!
