PLEASE HELP!! In a recent student government election, the ratio of students who voted for the winner to all the students who voted was 0.88. The number of students who voted was 125. How many votes did the winner get?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Well,

The the ratio of (number of students who voted for the winner) to (total number of students who voted) is 0.88:1.00 (note that .88 (or 88%) represents the number of students who voted for the winner.

We can re-write the decimal as a percent.
88% of the students voted for the winner.

The total number of students who voted was 125. Therefore (.88)125 = number of students who voted for the winner.

(.88)125 = 110

The winner of the election got 110 votes.

The value of x+y/y is an integer when y=4. which of the following is a possible value of x?A) -16
B) 2
C) 9
D) 15
E) 26

Answers

Assuming that you mean

$(x+y)/(y)$

if we let $y=4$ , the expression becomes

$(x+4)/(4)$

This is an integer if and only if x+4 is a multiple of 4, which in turn happens if and only if x is itself a multiple of 4.

So, the only good options are the multiple of 4, in your case -16.

division by zero is not allowed in math because a that fraction is -5 parts out of 0 total parts

if you tried to divide by zero and tried to check by multiplying it out so for example
5/10=2
5=10 times 1/2

5/0=0
5=0 times (it is imposible because anything times 0 is 0)
so the answer is C
