Question

2/15 of an airline's flights are international. The airline's flights are equally divided among 8 countries. What fraction of the​ airline's flights are to each​ country? If the airline has 2700 flights in​ all, how many are​ international? How many are not​ international? How many are to each of the ​6 countries?

Answer 1

The fraction of the​ airline's flights for each​ country is 1 /60

The number of international airline flights is 360 flights

The number of flights for each of the 8 countries is 45 flights

Explanation:

Given;

international airline's flights = 2/15

number of countries = 8

total number of the airline flight

The fraction of the​ airline's flights for each​ country;

`= (2)/(15)*(1)/(8) \\\\ = (1)/(60)`

The number of international airline flights;

`= (2)/(15) *2700\\\\= 360 \ flights \ are \ international`

The number of flights for each of the 8 countries;

`= (1)/(8) *360\\\\= 45 \ flights \ \\\\OR\\\\= (1)/(60)*2700\\\\ = 45 \ flights`
