There are 29235 marbles and 371 jacks. If you want to know the percentage of jacks, do you divide the first number by the second and then move the decimal two places to the left?

Correct Two decimal places to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

We will set the classic proportion:

29,235   -    100%

     371    -        x%

29,235 : 371 = 100 : x  ⇒ 29,235 · x = 371 · 100

x = (371/ 29,235) · 100 = 0.0127 · 100 = 1.27%

x = 1.27%

You divide first number by the second and then multiply with 100,

which is the same as moving the decimal point two places to the right.

God is with you!!!

for the friend request.

when a figure, such as triangle (xyz) is reflected over the line y = x to create x'y'z' the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the original image (pre-image) will be reversed for the image. (e.g., (x, y) > (y, x)) this means that the pre-image position of the x- and y-coordinates switch places which in turn provides a mirror like image of the original xyz.  

i notice that when i draw a line segment from x to x', that the points are parallel from each other -- they are exactly across from each other and do not intersect with any other points.  

yes, think i would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line because of the essence of reflections. because it is a mirror image, each point was effected the same way which leads me to conclude that they same would apply to y and y'.
