5000 children under the age of 10. What is the fraction, in its simplest form, of children under 10?

Respuesta :

Answer:

2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of children under 10 = 5000 / 17500 (without being simplified).

we can then simplify it to:

50 / 175 = 10/35 = 2/7

Answer:

[tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know there is a population of 17,500 and 5000 are children under the age of 10. We  want to find the the fraction of the children under 10 over the total population in it's simplest form so,

[tex]\frac{5000}{17500} =\frac{500}{1750} =\frac{50}{175}=\frac{2}{7}[/tex]
