Cambridge slim are 50 sausages in the first 20 minutes of a high stakes eating contest. Assuming that he continued at the same pace how many sausages would he have eaten by the end of the 30 minute contest

This is an example of proportional reasoning.

17 sausages is to 7 minutes as ??? sausages is to 30 minutes.

Mathematically:

17 / 7 = x / 30

Step-by-step explanation:

75 sausages

Step-by-step explanation:

Sausages ate in 20 minutes = 50

Sausages ate in 1 minute = 50 ÷ 20

Sausages ate in 30 minutes = (50 ÷ 20) x 30

= 75

13.33%

say 50 oranges, then 100 apples

80 are red, 20 are yellow

total fruit = 150

20chances out of 150 for yellow

20/150 = 13.33%

45

step-by-step explanation:

to find a percentage, add a decimal in front and multiply it by the other number.

.25 times 180= 45
