Answer:

Yes, one box of parties is enough for everyone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cereal contained by one box = 12 cups,

Also, each young child needs cereal = \frac{1}{3} cup,

So, the cups needed for 11 younger child = \frac{11}{3} cups

Also, each older child needs cereal = \frac{3}{4} cup,

So, the cups needed for 10 older children = \frac{30}{4} cups,

Thus, the total cups needed = \frac{11}{3}+\frac{30}{4}

=\frac{44+90}{12}

=\frac{134}{12}

=11\frac{1}{6}

\because 11\frac{1}{6} < 12

Hence, one box of parties is enough for everyone.

We have 11 younger children, and we need 1/3 cups for each. So we need 11/3 cups for the younger children. We have 10 older children, and we need 3/4 cups for each. So we need 30/4 cups for the older children. 30/4+11/3 is the total number. But now we have to find a common denominator. Our common denominator in this instance is 12, so we just apply that. 90/12+44/12. 90+44=134/12=11.166667. So the answer is yes, one box is enough. Hope this helps!

9 is 12 percent of what number? ( show your work)
Solution 1
For this question, we want to find out what 9 / 12 equals as a percent or x / 100. Therefore, we have a proportion here and can say: 9/12 = x/100 Now, at this point, we can cross multiply to get: 900 = 12x Now, divide both sides by 12 to get x alone and find that: x = 75 <==== FINAL ANSWER
so 9 is 12% of 75!

Question
How does simple interest show proportional reasoning and relate to the percent equation?
Solution 1

Simple interest show proportional reasoning and relate to the percentage equation.

Relationship between percentage and proportion:

  • The relationship between proportion and percentage occurs when a particular proportion gets multiplied by 100 it gives the percentage of parts taken

means,

\dfrac{\text{Parts}}{Whole}\times 100= \text{Percentage}

Similarly,

when a percent gets multiplied by total it gives the number of parts taken means,

\text{Parts} = \text{percent} \times\text{whole}

  • We can also use cross product to find out if the two ratios form a proportion.

Here we can see that 3/15 and 6/44 are proportions, since their cross products are equal.

Percent means hundredths or per hundred and is written with the signal, %. Percent is a ratio where we compare numbers to 100 which means that 1% is 1/100.

Therefore, simple interest show proportional reasoning and relates to the percentage equation.

Solution 2

Answer:

Use cross product to determine if the two ratios form a proportion. Here we can see that 2/16 and 5/40 are proportions since their cross products are equal. Percent means hundredths or per hundred and is written with the symbol, %. Percent is a ratio were we compare numbers to 100 which means that 1% is 1/100.

Question
Suppose the new actual number of pizzas sold today was 60. The original previous day sold was 65. Describe the number of pizzas sold as a percent increase or decrease (aka Percent of Change), rounded to the nearest hundredth.
Solution 1
Answer: 1) Pizzeria must sell 78 pizzas for receiving the bonus.
2) The number of pizzas sold is decreased by Approximately 7.69 %.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The number of pizza sold yesterday = 65,
The target for receiving the bonus = 20% more than the number of pizza sold yesterday
= 20% more than 65,
= 65 + 20% of 65 ( 1% = 0.01 ⇒ 20% = 0.2 )
= 65 + 0.2 × 65
= 65 + 13 = 78.
Hence, they must sell 78 pizzas for receiving the bonus.
2) If the actual number of pizza sold today = 60
⇒ Total reduction in the number of pizza = 65 - 60
= 5
Thus, the percentage decrease in the number of pizza

Question
Please help me? Michelle has a total debt of $28. She is trying to pay back $2 each week for the next 3 weeks. If Michelle is successful, which amount will represent the change in the amount of her debt?
Solution 1

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

$28

$2/week

$28 - (2x3) = $22

$22 - $28 = -$6

Solution 2

Answer:

$22

Step-by-step explanation:

She gives 2 dollars per week for 3 weeks.

If she gives back 2 dollars each 3 weeks, we would solve for 2 x 3

2 x 3 = 6

28 - 6 = 22

$22 dollars represents her amount of debt.
