There are 12 women and 24 men in a hunting class. What percent of the entire hunting class is men?
Definition
If there are 24 men in a hunting class then, the total number of people in the class is 36. The men take up 24/36 of the class. You have to find a percent so then you would divide the fraction, and multiply by a 100. The correct answer would be 66.6 or 66.7.
Term
A gumball machine dispenses gumballs of different colors in the following pattern: green, blue, red, red, yellow, white, white, green, and green. Thinking the pattern repeats itself, if the machine dispenses 60 gumball, how many of them will be green?
Definition
This question has nine colors that repeat. Everytime the machine goes through this pattern 3 out of the 9 times are green. 60 is not a multiple of 9, 54 is. When the machine dispenses its 54th gumball is has gone through the pattern exactly 6 times. So it will have dispensed 3x6=18 green gumballs.
