out of 150 eggs in a basket, 25 eggs were found rotten. find the ratio of: 1.rotten eggs in the good eggs 2. rotten eggs to the total eggs 3. good eggs to the total eggs
Let total number of eggs be n
No.of rotten eggs =15/100×n
By the problem no.of rotten eggs=48
So ,15/100×n=48
n=48/15×100=320
Therefore, Total no.of eggs=320
Item 10
15% of the apples in a crate are rotten. There are 12 rotten apples in the crate.
How many apples are in the crate?
Enter your answer in the box.
apples
Rotten eggs into good eggs
Why let the total number be n? It says there are 150.
rotten:good = 25/(150-25) = 25/125 = 1/5
rotten:total = 25/150 = 1/6
good:total = 125/150 = 5/6 (as expected, since 1/6 are bad)
15% of eggs were found rotten in a basket if the number of rotten eggs in basket was 48 find a,total number of eggs b,total number of fresh eggs c, percentage of fresh eggs.
1. The ratio of rotten eggs to good eggs can be calculated by subtracting the number of rotten eggs from the total number of eggs and dividing it by the number of rotten eggs:
Ratio of rotten eggs to good eggs = 25 / (150 - 25) = 25 / 125 = 1/5 or 0.2
2. The ratio of rotten eggs to the total number of eggs is simply the number of rotten eggs divided by the total number of eggs:
Ratio of rotten eggs to total eggs = 25 / 150 = 1/6 or approximately 0.1667
3. The ratio of good eggs to the total number of eggs can be calculated by subtracting the number of rotten eggs from the total number of eggs and dividing it by the total number of eggs:
Ratio of good eggs to total eggs = (150 - 25) / 150 = 125 / 150 = 5/6 or approximately 0.8333
Now, I know dealing with eggs can be a delicate matter, but remember, even when dealing with rotten eggs, there's always yolk for improvement.
To solve this problem, we need to calculate the number of rotten eggs, the number of good eggs, and the total number of eggs.
1. To find the ratio of rotten eggs to good eggs, we need to determine the number of good eggs. Since we know that 25 eggs are rotten, we subtract that from the total number of eggs: 150 - 25 = 125.
The ratio of rotten eggs to good eggs is 25:125, which simplifies to 1:5.
2. To find the ratio of rotten eggs to the total number of eggs, we simply divide the number of rotten eggs by the total number of eggs and express it as a fraction: 25/150.
This fraction can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 25, resulting in 1/6.
3. To find the ratio of good eggs to the total number of eggs, we subtract the number of rotten eggs from the total number of eggs: 150 - 25 = 125.
The ratio of good eggs to the total eggs is 125:150, which can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 25 to get 5:6.
So, the ratios are as follows:
1. The ratio of rotten eggs to good eggs is 1:5.
2. The ratio of rotten eggs to the total number of eggs is 1:6.
3. The ratio of good eggs to the total number of eggs is 5:6.
