Sure! I can help you check your answers and show you how to solve them. Let's go through each question one by one:
1. Find 5% of 220 files:
To find a percentage of a number, you can multiply the number by the percentage in decimal form. So, to find 5% of 220 files, you would calculate: 220 * 0.05 = 11. Therefore, 5% of 220 files is 11. Your answer of 110 is incorrect.
2. 360 kilometers is 24% of ___ kilometers:
In this question, you need to find the total number of kilometers that 360 kilometers represent 24% of. To do this, you would divide 360 by 0.24 (since 24% is equal to 0.24 as a decimal). So, the calculation would be: 360 / 0.24 = 1500. Therefore, the missing number of kilometers is 1500. Your answer of 864 is incorrect.
3. Find how many puppies are there if 15% of the dogs are puppies, and there are 60 dogs at the shelter:
To find the number of puppies, you can multiply the total number of dogs by the percentage of puppies in decimal form. So, to find 15% of 60 dogs, you would calculate: 60 * 0.15 = 9. Thus, there are 9 puppies in the shelter. Your answer of 25 puppies is incorrect.
Here are the correct answers and the steps to solve each question:
1. 5% of 220 files = 220 * 0.05 = 11 files
2. 360 kilometers is 24% of ___ kilometers = 360 / 0.24 = 1500 kilometers
3. 15% of 60 dogs = 60 * 0.15 = 9 puppies
