There are 60 students eating lunch in the cafeteria five-tenths of them brought lunches from home. How many students brought lunches from home?

Five-tenths is equal to a half and half of 60 is 30 so the answer would be 30 students!:)

30   Hope this helps please mark brainliest! Thanks!

Step-by-step explanation:

Five tenths=5/10=50%=1/2

So basically it's 30 out of 60 students brought lunch from home.

So the answer is 30!

If 2 for every 3 students are in the activity, and there are 600 total students, then you can use ratios to find how many students in this after school activity.

2:3 is the ratio we are given.
We need to find x in x:600, with 600 being the total number of students.

2:3 and x:600 must be equivalent ratios.
This means we can divide 600 by 3 and multiply that by 2 to get x.

600 / 3 = 200
2 • 200 = 400

2:3 = 400:600
2:3 and 400:600 are equivalent.

The ratio 400:600 means that 400 students out of the 600 total students participate in this after school activity.

400 students are in this after school activity.

In ratio form:
400:600

Hope this helps!
