Q: The circle graph above gives the distribution of salad dressing chosen by customers at a restaurant. If approximately 200 customers order salad each day at the restaurant, which of the following is closest to the difference per day between the number who choose Italian dressing and the number who choose Vinaigrette dressing?

I can’t determine the difference without the graph — please provide the percentages or angle measures for the Italian and Vinaigrette slices (or upload the circle graph). Explanation / How to compute once you give the data If you are given percentages: let $p_I$ and $p_V$ be the fractions (as decimals) choosing Italian and Vinaigrette. Then $$\text{difference}=200\cdot|p_I-p_V|.$$ Example: if Italian is $30\%$ and Vinaigrette is $18\%$, then difference $=200\cdot(0.30-0.18)=24$ customers. If you are given central angles (degrees): let $d_I$ and $d_V$ be the slice angles. Convert to fractions via $p=\dfrac{d}{360}$, so $$\text{difference}=200\cdot\left|\dfrac{d_I-d_V}{360}\right|.$$ Example: if $d_I=108^\circ$ and $d_V=65^\circ$, difference $=200\cdot\frac{43}{360}\approx23.9\approx24$ customers. Send the slice percents or angles (or the image) and I’ll compute the closest daily difference.

Q: 60 in spanish

Q: .375 as a fraction

The correct answer is: $\frac{3}{8}$ Explanation 0.375 is a terminating decimal with three decimal places, so write it as a fraction over 1000 and reduce to lowest terms. Steps: First step: $$0.375=\frac{375}{1000}$$ Second step: Divide numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (125): $$\frac{375\div125}{1000\div125}=\frac{3}{8}$$ Final step: $$\frac{3}{8}=0.375$$ Therefore, $0.375=\frac{3}{8}$.

Q: 2 liters to oz

The correct answer is: $67.6280452\text{ fl oz}$ Explanation You convert liters to US fluid ounces using the factor $1\text{ L}=33.8140226\text{ fl oz}$. Steps: Conversion factor: $$1\text{ L}=33.8140226\text{ fl oz}$$ Multiply by 2 liters: $$2\text{ L}\times33.8140226\frac{\text{fl oz}}{\text{L}}=67.6280452\text{ fl oz}$$ Rounded (typical): $$\approx67.63\text{ fl oz}$$ Therefore, 2 liters ≈ $67.63\text{ fl oz}$. Note: This is for US fluid ounces. If you meant imperial (UK) fluid ounces, 2 L ≈ $70.40\text{ fl oz (imp)}$.

Q: Dawn and Emily each had the same length of ribbon. Both girls used their ribbons to make identical bows. Dawn made 12 bows and had 128 cm of ribbon left. Emily made 9 bows and had 176 cm of ribbon left. How many bows could Emily make with the ribbon she had left?

The correct answer is:$11$ Explanation Let each bow use $x$ cm of ribbon and let the total ribbon length be $L$. Steps: Dawn: $L = 12x + 128$. Emily: $L = 9x + 176$. Equate and solve: $$12x + 128 = 9x + 176$$ $$3x = 48$$ $$x = 16$$ Emily's leftover $176\text{ cm}$ can make $$\frac{176}{16} = 11$$ bows. Therefore, Emily could make 11 more bows with the ribbon she had left.

Question

The following data were reported by a corporation: Authorized shares 20,000 Issued shares 15,000 Treasury shares 3,000 The number of outstanding shares is:

Accepted Answer

The correct answer is: $12000$

Explanation

Outstanding shares equal the number of issued shares minus treasury shares (shares the company has reacquired). Here the company issued 15,000 shares and holds 3,000 as treasury, so those 3,000 are not outstanding.

Steps:

Formula: $$	ext{Outstanding shares}=	ext{Issued shares}-	ext{Treasury shares}$$  
Substitute: $$=15000-3000$$  
Final: $$=12000$$

Therefore, the number of outstanding shares is $12000$.
