21% reptiles, 11% are birds. There are a total of 1,500 animals in the zoo. Is this the correct proportion that I wrote to solve?
11/21 = r/1,500
What is the question you want to solve?
hi Ms. Sue.
It is not to solve but how I am suppose to write out to solve.
the choices were;
11/21 = r 1,500 ***** this is the one I chose.
11/100 = r /1,500
21/100 = r/1,500
oops I mean 11/21 = r/1,500 I chose. :)
Do you want to know how many reptiles? Or how many birds? Or something else?
In a zoo, 21%of the animals are reptiles, 11% are birds. There are a total of 1,500 animals in the zoo. Which proportion can be solved for r, the number of reptiles in the zoo.
Is this the correct proportion that I wrote to solve?
11/21 = r/1,500 I chose. :)
One more quick question?
is 62/7 opposite is -62/7 ?
Thanks for posting the entire problem.
21/100 = r/1500
