Answer:
33.3%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the percent change is x%. Then the equation is:
30 + x% * 30 = 40
Subtract 30 from both sides:
x% * 30 = 10
Divide by 30:
x% = 10/30 = 1/3
Remember that % simply means "out of 100", so:
x/100 = 1/3
Multiply both sides by 100:
x = (1/3) * 100 = 33.3%
Given that Joseph has 24 cousins, and he has 6 more females than males, the number of females will be obtained as follows;
suppose he had x males, number of females will be x+6.
The total will be:
x+(x+6)=24
x+x+6=24
2x+6=24
2x=24-6
2x=18
x=18/2
x=9
thus the number of male cousins is 9, the number of female cousins will be 9+6=15
We therefore conclude that he has 9 male cousins and 15 female cousins
112,811 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand is 100,000
2/15+3/15=5/15 5 can go into both 5/5=1 and 15/5=3 which means
=1/3 is the answer
