Answer this question:The ratio of boys to girls at the dance was 3:4. There were 60 girls at the dance. The teachers were 20% of the number of boys. How many people were at the dance?
60 girls represent 4 parts, so one part of students is 60 / 4 = 15 students. There are 15 * 3 = 45 boys at the dance. The teachers at the dance are 45 * 0,2 = 9 teachers at the dance. There are 60 + 45 + 9 = 114 people at the dance.
The answer is 114.

Answer this question:Megan is making food for a party. She has to spend 20 minutes preparing one dish in the oven. Each dish can feed 5 people. She spends 2 hours preparing as many of these dishes as she can for the party. How many people can she feed with these dishes?
First, we need to determine the total amount of minutes available for cooking. We do this by performing 2 * 60 = 120, as there are 60 minutes in an hour. Now that we know we have 120 minutes, we then divide the preparation time into the total amount of time by performing 120 / 20 = 6 dishes capable of being made. Since each dish can feed 5 people, we find the total number of people fed by performing 5 * 6 = 30 people.
The answer is 30.

Answer this question:A zoo has 16 pandas, paired into mates (in the same zoo). Only 25% of the panda couples get pregnant after mating. If they each have one baby, how many panda babies are born?
First divide the number of pandas by 2 to find the number of couples: 16 pandas / 2 = 8 panda couples. Then multiply that number by 25% to find the number of babies: 8 panda couples * 25% = 2 panda babies.
The answer is 2.
