10 balloons are left over after sharing them equally and 17 more balloons are needed

Numbers of students learning to make balloon animal = 27
Total balloon to be shared equally among the students = 172

<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

<u>First step: </u>

To determine how many balloons each student gets = the total balloons to be shared equally among the students divided by the number of students learning to make balloon animal.

Therefore, we have:

= $\frac{172}{27}$

= 6.37

= 6 balloons (each student get 6 balloons)

<u>Second step: </u>

To get how many balloons will be used by the entire student, then we should multiply the number of balloon each student gets (6) and the numbers of students learning to make balloon animal (27)

Therefore, we have:

= 6 x 27

= 162 (162 balloon will be used by the student)

To calculate the remaining balloons, then we have to subtract the total balloons to be shared equally by the students and the numbers of balloon to be used by the entire students

Therefore, we have:

= 172 – 162

= 10 balloons.

Thus, 10 balloons are left over after sharing them equally.

If each student needs 7 balloons, then 17 more balloons are needed.

Since we have 10 balloons left after sharing them equally, to determine how many more balloons are needed = total number of students learning to make balloon animal – the numbers of balloon left over after sharing them equally.

Therefore, we have:

= 27 – 10

= 17 balloons

Therefore, if each student needs 7 balloons, 17 more balloons are needed.

<h3><u>Another step:</u></h3>

Another way you could determine how many balloons are needed is to multiply the numbers of balloon each student needs and the total number of student learning to make balloons animals, and subtract the value you derived from the total balloon to be shared equally among the students.

Therefore, we have:

= 7 x 27

= 189 balloons

= 189 - 172

= 17 balloons.

A.) .4 of a balloon is left
To Check:
what I did was divide 172 by 27 and it is 6.37 rounded to ........6 is an equal number so I kept it and .4 will be left over after sharing equally.

B.) 17 more balloons are needs
To Check:
what I was multiply 27 by 7 because each student needs seven balloons and I got 189 after that I subtracted 172 from 189 (189-172=17)
to see how many more balloons are needed.

I need to increase the number of customers by 20% daily, I talk to an average of 8 customers per hour during an 8 hour shift so

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Before we figure out how many customers you will need to talk per day to reach your goal, let's calculate what is 20% of how many customers you normally talk to a day.

current no. = 8

goal = 8 + 20%

20% = 8 x 0.20

(a percent is really just a fraction with the percent number over 100)

20% = 1.60

goal = 8 + 1.60

goal = 9.60

However, there is no such thing as .60 of a person so we will have to round up. You will need to talk to 10 customers per day.

Solve for<br> a. 7a-2b = 5a b

Nookie1986 [14]

For this case we have the following expression:

$7a-2b = 5ab$

From here, we must clear the value of a.

We then have the following steps:

Place the terms that depend on a on the same side of the equation:

$7a - 5ab = 2b$

Do common factor "a":

$a (7 - 5b) = 2b$

Clear the value of "a" by dividing the factor within the parenthesis:

$a =\frac{2b}{7-5b}$

Answer:

The clear expression for "a" is given by:

$a =\frac{2b}{7-5b}$

Radium-226, an isotope of radium, has a half-life of 1,601 years. Suppose your chemistry teacher has a 50-gram sample of radium-

Sholpan [36]

We know that
Half-life is modeled by the formula
An=A0*(0.5)<span>^[t/h)]
where
An----------> </span>is the amount remaining after a time t
A0----------> is the initial quantity
t------------> is the time
h------------> is the half-life of the decaying quantity

in this problem
h=1601 years
A0=50 g
An=?
t=100 years
An=A0*(0.5)^[t/h)]---------> An=50*(0.5)^[100/1601)]-----> 47.88 gr

the answer is 47.88 g

A mattress store sold 1,330 mattresses in one year. If 30% of the mattresses sold were king size mattresses, how many king size

kodGreya [7K]

The total number of mattresses that are sold in a year = 1,330

Percentage of King size mattresses sold = 30% = 30/100 = 0.3

Next, we have to calculate the actual number sold by using the formula given below:

Number of king size mattresses sold = Total mattresses sold in a year * percentage of king size mattresses sold

Number of King Size mattresses sold = 1,330*0.3 = 399

Number of king size mattresses sold = 399
