Suppose 8 out of every 20 students are absent from school less than 5 days a year. Predict how many students would be absent from school less than 5 days a year out of 40,000 students

16,000

What is (8/20)(40000) ?

Right.

Yes deontai u r correct thank u!

Cross multiply and solve for x.

8/20 = x/40,000

Suppose 8 out of every student are absent from school less than five days a year. Predict how many students would be absent from school less than five days a year out of 40,000 students

16,000

how did u get 16,000?

I'm so embarrassed! I'm looking up every answer on pg. 77

9+10=19

8/20 = 2/5=40,000

I got first 20 over 8 and then mutplie or divide by 20 then the answer divide 40,000 and done!

suppose 8 out of evey 20 students are absent from school less then five days a year. predict how many students would be absent from school less then five days a year out of 40,000 students answer

How do u get 16,000

Mew
