Carl buys songs:20 rock songs, 15 country songs 10 world songs, and 5 classical. The total is 50 songs. what fraction of the songs were country? Find fraction for each type of song. Write each fraction in simplest form and give the equivalent percent. Please help and explain how you did this!!!im not sure what to do...

What fraction of the songs were country?

15/50 = 3/10
3 divided by 10 = 0.3
0.3 * 100 = 30%

Do the others the same way.

Well tell me all of the others cause I don't feel like doing all this math and it's hard please and thank you

Thanks, Ms.sue

Honestly idk

Country: 3/10=30%, Rock: 20/50=10%

To find the fraction of the songs that were country, we need to divide the number of country songs by the total number of songs.

Number of country songs = 15
Total number of songs = 50

Fraction of country songs = number of country songs / total number of songs = 15 / 50

To simplify this fraction, we can divide the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 5.

15 / 50 = (15 ÷ 5) / (50 ÷ 5) = 3 / 10

So, the fraction of the songs that were country is 3/10.

To find the fraction for each type of song, we divide the number of songs of each type by the total number of songs.

Number of rock songs = 20
Number of country songs = 15
Number of world songs = 10
Number of classical songs = 5
Total number of songs = 50

Fraction of rock songs = number of rock songs / total number of songs = 20 / 50 = 2 / 5
Fraction of country songs = number of country songs / total number of songs = 15 / 50 = 3 / 10
Fraction of world songs = number of world songs / total number of songs = 10 / 50 = 1 / 5
Fraction of classical songs = number of classical songs / total number of songs = 5 / 50 = 1 / 10

To find the equivalent percent, we can multiply the fraction by 100.

Equivalent percent of rock songs = fraction of rock songs * 100 = (2 / 5) * 100 = 40%
Equivalent percent of country songs = fraction of country songs * 100 = (3 / 10) * 100 = 30%
Equivalent percent of world songs = fraction of world songs * 100 = (1 / 5) * 100 = 20%
Equivalent percent of classical songs = fraction of classical songs * 100 = (1 / 10) * 100 = 10%

Therefore, the fraction and equivalent percent for each type of song are as follows:
Rock songs: 2/5 (40%)
Country songs: 3/10 (30%)
World songs: 1/5 (20%)
Classical songs: 1/10 (10%)
