Problema Solution

The percent of all adults who rake photographs is greater than the percent who play word games(8%) but less than the percent who bake (17%). What the fraction of all adults might take photographs?

Answer provided by our tutors

let x be the fraction of the adults that might take photographs


the percent of adults who play word games is 8% or written as a fraction it is 8/100 = 2/25 of the total people


the percent of adults who bake is 17% or written as a fraction it is 17/100 of the total people


now for the fraction x we can write


2/25 < x < 17/100


between 2/25 and 17/100 of the total people might take photographs.
