Three eights of the students in ms.dulls class ride the bus if there are 24 students in class how many students ride the bus explain how to use equivalent fractions to solve

Total no. Ratio
Ride the bus x. = 3
Total. 24 8 This creates a proportion where both fractions: x/24 and 3/8 are equivalent fractions.

Cross multiply: 8x = (3)(24)
Multiply: 8x = 72
Divide both sides by 8: 8x/8 = 72/8
Divide: x = 9 <—. The number of students who ride the bus

Either 3137.5 or 4006.3 days.

Step-by-step explanation: The average male human can jog 8.3 mph, while the average woman runs at 6.5 mph. Assuming we're measuring women's speed, we would do 625,000 / 6.5, and we would get 96153 hours (translating to days would yield 4006.3 days). For men, we would perform the same equation, except instead of dividing by 6.5, we would divide by 8.3, which would yield about 75301 hours, or 3137.5 days. Hope this answered your question, as I don't have too much info on the exact question.
