Three out of every 10 adults segregate their food.

a) Write this information as a ratio.
       Segregators          3
          total             10
b) In a group of 90 people, how many would you
   expect to be food segregators?

The scale on a map is 1 inch = 20 miles.

a) If two towns are 4 ½ inches apart on the map, how
many miles apart are they?
       1x         20 · 4 ½
                               x = 20 · 9 = 180 = 90

b) If two towns are 75 miles apart, how far apart will
they be on the map?
        75        20x      20x = 75 3 ¾ inches apart
Inch       1 = x           20 20

A dress that normally sells for $80 is on sale for $52.
What is the “percent off”?

1)   Find the markdown
          80 – 52 = 28

2)   Percent: x         Part: 28         Whole: 80

           x    28
              =
