Hi there! To solve this question, we can write and solve a proportion. Let’s set it up like this: 13,600/x = 19.3/100. We do this, because we’re looking for the total amount of people, which would be the whole. We already have the part. Cross multiply the values in order to get 1,360,000 = 19.3x. Now, divide each side by 19.3 to isolate the variable. When you do, you get x is approx. 70,466.3212 or 70,466 when rounded to the nearest whole number. Plus, you can’t have a fraction of a person, anyway. The company has a total of 70,466 employees.
13 - (x+2) = 8
subtract 13 from both sides
-(x+2) = -5
divide by -1 to get rid of negative
(x+2) = 5
subtract 2 from both sides
x=3
Answer:
102 marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
100% of 85 is 85.
20% of 85 = 17
85 + 17 = 102
Hope that helps!
20% are cats.
20 cats/300 total animals=0.2
0.2 is the same thing as 20%.
Answer:
1 : 4 : 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the ratio of diameters = a : b , then
ratio of areas = a² : b²
Here ratio of diameters = 1 : 2 : 3 , so
ratio of areas = 1² : 2² : 3² = 1 : 4 : 9
