In a recent poll 60% of the middle school preferred pizza for lunch on Friday 27% prefer tacos and 13% preferred hotdogs the middle school have 860 students for Friday lunches how many prefer pizza

516 students preferred pizza

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we have to calculate 60% of the total students (860)

To get the percentage of a number we have to divide by 100 and then multiply by the number it indicates, in this case 60

860 %60 = 860 / 100 * 60

860 / 100 * 60 =

8.6 * 60 = 516

60% of 860 is 516

this means that for Friday lunches 516 students preferred pizza

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.  

c. side angle side. u shares the same sides
