This is how I wold solve this:
9 * .45 = ?
Use a calculator or something to figure it out.
Hope I helped. :)
There are nine oak trees in a park. The oak trees make up 45% of all the trees in the park. How many trees are in the park?
9 answers
So there are 4.05 trees in the park?
Well, there is 4 trees in the park.
Ok thank u
You're welcome, Amy
These answers make absolutely no sense!! If there are 9 oak trees, how can there only be 4 trees total???
Let x = the total number of trees.
0.45x = 9
x = 9 / 0.45
x = 20
Let x = the total number of trees.
0.45x = 9
x = 9 / 0.45
x = 20
So glad u are on here thanks for checking this
You're welcome. It's always a good idea to check back on previously answered questions. :-)
It's also a good idea to make sure that any answer anyone posts makes sense. If you don't understand -- ask again.
