Fractions and Decimals
There are two fractions such that fraction X is thrice the fraction Y and their product is 25/12. Which of the following is equal to Y?
Let X and Y are given fractions.Given that, fraction X is thrice the fraction Y;i.e., X = 3Y ...(1)And their product = X x Y = 25/12Sub. eqn (1) in above,(3Y)x(Y) = 25/123(Y²) = 25/12(Y²) = 25/36Y = 5/6Hence the required fraction is 5/6.
Number of male voters = 4/10 of 1575 = 4/10 x 1575 = 630 Number of female voters=1575 - 630 = 945 Now, total votes that candidate got = (6/10) x 630 + (4/10) x 945 = 378 + 378 = 756
