In 2005, 12.8 out of every 50 employees at a company were women. if there are 40,607 total company employees, estimate the number of women.

5,276

Step-by-step explanation:

cross multiplication

Because they are both being divided by 1,030,350 we can simplify it to

Because you cant have 0.392 of a woman, I always round up.

my answer would be 5,276

the simplified form is

step-by-step explanation:

we want to simplify the expression,

let us change the middle bar to a normal division sign to obtain,

we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction to obtain,

we factor to obtain,

we cancel the common factors to get,

we simplify to get,

the correct answer is b

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
