Question

Answer this with an explanation if you can

Answer 1

The structure of a proportion is

`(part)/(whole) = (part)/(whole)`

The whole of the first fraction is 5. This is because the survey is looking at incriments of 5 students

The part of the first fraction is 2. This is because a fraction (part) of the incriments of 5 students that ride the bike is 2.

The whole of the second fraction is 65. This is because there is a total of 65 students.

The part of this fraction is unknown (n)

So...

first fraction: part = 2 whole = 5

second fraction: part = n whole = 65

The proportion for this question is:

`(2)/(5) = (n)/(65)`
