at a workplace 153 of the 225 employees attended a meeting. which statement shows values that are all equivalent to the fraction of employees who attended the meeting?

Question

Answers,
153 over 225= 17 over 25= 0.68=68%,
225 over 153= 25 over 17= 1.47= 147%,
153 over 225= 51 over 75= 0.51 = 51%,
or 225 over 153= 75 over 51= 0.75 = 75%

Answer 1

The correct statement that shows values that are all equivalent to the fraction of employees who attended the meeting, which is \( \frac{153}{225} \), is:

153 over 225 = 17 over 25 = 0.68 = 68%

Here’s the breakdown:

• \( \frac{153}{225} \) is the original fraction.
• \( \frac{153 \div 9}{225 \div 9} = \frac{17}{25} \) simplifies the fraction.
• The decimal form is \( 153 \div 225 = 0.68 \).
• The percentage form is \( 0.68 \times 100 = 68% \).

The other statements do not equivalently represent the fraction of employees who attended the meeting.
