Why is the answer 4?
OpenStudy (decarr432):
Simply pull up your calculator if you have one near or use th eone on google or on your pc lol
OpenStudy (decarr432):
then simply put 25+16% and it will tell you lol
OpenStudy (miss.rose):

OpenStudy (miss.rose):
um...
the last one D.
OpenStudy (koalagurl1):
Why do you think it is that one?
OpenStudy (miss.rose):
This is just a guess. I just randomly chose that one.
OpenStudy (koalagurl1):
Ok, well that's incorrect. Any others?

OpenStudy (miss.rose):
Yes.
OpenStudy (koalagurl1):
Ok, what is 6% as a fraction?
OpenStudy (miss.rose):
\[\frac{ 3 }{50 }\]
OpenStudy (koalagurl1):
It can be that too, but without reducing it, what would it be?
OpenStudy (miss.rose):
\[\frac{ 6 }{ 100}\]

Yes, and there is only one answer with that fraction. So, use your power of deduction and figure out which one you think it is.
OpenStudy (koalagurl1):
:)
OpenStudy (miss.rose):
It's A.
Do you have time to help me with one more?
OpenStudy (koalagurl1):
Sure :)
OpenStudy (miss.rose):
Okay.
