A jar is filled with quarters and nickels in the ratio 1 2/5 to 2 1/3. If there are 24 quarters in the jar, what is the ratio in dollar value of quarters to that of the nickels???

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  3 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of coins is ...

  1 2/5 : 2 1/3 = 7/5 : 7/3 = 3 : 5

The quarters have 5 times the dollar value of nickels, so the ratio of dollar values is ...

  5(3) : 5 = 3 : 1

The quarters have 3 times the dollar value of the nickels.

__

Additional comment

The number of nickels is 5/3 times the number of quarters, so is 5/3(24) = 40.

The dollar value of the quarters is 24($0.25) = $6.

The dollar value of the nickels is 40($0.05) = $2.

As above, the ratio of dollar values is 6:2 = 3 : 1.

There are a few different ways to compute the ratio of fractions. The one we used here may be a little unusual. All are equivalent.

(PLEASE HELPP) The number of 6th graders in RSM summer camp to that of 7th graders was 4 to 11, while the number of 5th graders to that of the 6th graders was 13 to 9. By what percent did the number of 7th graders exceed that of the number of 5th and 6th graders taken together ?

Answers

Answer:

The number of 7th graders exceed that of the number of 5th and 6th graders taken together by 5.88%.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to say that:

x is the proportion of 5th graders.

y is the proportion of 6th graders.

z is the proportion of 7th graders.

The number of 6th graders in RSM summer camp to that of 7th graders was 4 to 11

This means that:

\frac{y}{z} = \frac{4}{11}

z

y

=

11

4

So

11y = 4z11y=4z

y = \frac{4z}{11}y=

11

4z

The number of 5th graders to that of the 6th graders was 13 to 9.

This means that:

\frac{x}{y} = \frac{13}{9}

y

x

=

9

13

9x = 13y9x=13y

x = \frac{13y}{9}x=

9

13y

All of them is 100%

This means that:

x + y + z = 1x+y+z=1

We need to find z.

y = \frac{4z}{11}y=

11

4z

x = \frac{13y}{9} = \frac{13*4z}{9*11} = \frac{52z}{99}x=

9

13y

=

9∗11

13∗4z

=

99

52z

Then

x + y + z = 1x+y+z=1

\frac{52z}{99} + \frac{4z}{11} + z = 1

99

52z

+

11

4z

+z=1

The lcm(least common multiple) between 11 and 99 is 99. Then

\frac{52z + 9*4z + 99z}{99} = 1

99

52z+9∗4z+99z

=1

187z = 99187z=99

z = \frac{99}{187}z=

187

99

z = 0.5294z=0.5294

By what percent did the number of 7th graders exceed that of the number of 5th and 6th graders taken together ?

z(7th graders) is 52.94%.

x + y(5th and 6th graders) is 100 - 52.94 = 47.06%

52.94 - 47.06 = 5.88

The number of 7th graders exceed that of the number of 5th and 6th graders taken together by 5.88%.

Question content area bottom

Part 2
Steve needs to find the

whole.

Answers

Answer:

a. Meg needs to find the part

b. Steve needs to find the percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Does Meg need to find the part, the whole, or the percent.

Meg already knows the whole and the percent.

The whole is the entire number of dogs seen: 16 dogs.

The percent is 50%.

Hence, she needs to find the part: this is how many (what part) of the 16 dogs she saw were boxers.

And she can do with a simple operation:

Part = whole × percent = 16 × 50% = 8. This is 8 dogs of 16 were boxers.

B. Does Steve need to find the part, the whole, or the percent.

He already knows the part (7 of the 35 dogs were boxers) and the whole (35 dogs).

Then he needs to find the percent, which he can do using the next operation:

Percent = (part / whole) × 100 = (7/35)×100 = 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1:

Meg needs to find the whole as 50% of the dogs = 5 therefore 100% equals 10 dogs.

Part 2:

Steve saw 50% out of two dogs meaning that he only saw 1 dog that is a boxer.

how much water should be added to 5 gallons of 50% acid solution to get a 20% solution?

Answers

Answer:

7.5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5/5+x=0.2

This question is based on the concept of solving an  equation. Therefore, 7.5 gallons of water would be added to 5 gallons of 50% acid solution to get a 20% solution.

Given:

5 gallons of 50% acid solution to get a 20% solution.

According to question,

Let  it be x gallons of water should be added to 5 gallons of 50% acid solution to get a 20% solution.

Now, forming the equation, we get,

 0.50 ( 5 )  =  0.20  ( x + 5 )

Simplifying the equation.

We get,

2.5 = 0.2x + 1

1.5 = 0.2 x

x = 7.5

Therefore, 7.5 gallons of water would be added to 5 gallons of 50% acid solution to get a 20% solution.

A

Step-by-step explanation:

the numerator always goes into the dividend, and in this case the dividend is 7, so 7/9 is correct rather than 9/7. and the decimal form is 0.7777777+ it is not 0.7 because the question keeps adding zeros when the whole number is supposed to be 7, not 7.000. hope that helps.

A holiday meal cost $12.50 a person plus a delivery fee of 30$. Which equation is right?

2. y= 12.50+30
3. 12.50x=30
4. y=12.50+30x

Answers

Answer:

1. y = 12.50x + 30

Step-by-step explanation:

A holiday meal cost $12.50 a person plus a delivery fee of 30$

Let x = number of people ordering a meal and y = total cost

It cost 12.50 per person so the cost regarding the number of people that orders food can be represented by 12.50x.

There is also a $30 delivery fee.

So the total cost would (y) = 12.50x + 30

The answer would be 1. 12.50 and 30 just swapped places.

y=12.50x= 30
