Last year, 320 students were members of Pine Hill Middle School clubs. This year, there was a 20% increase in memberships. How many students are members this year?

384

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of students in the club last year = 320

No. of students in the club this year increased by 20%

To find the actual increase, 20% is multiplied by the number of students in the club last year which is 320 and to find the number of students in the club this year add the answer to 320 (the number of students in the club last year)

That is,

= 20% * 320

= 20/100 * 320

= 64

Finding the number of students in the club this year

320 + 64 = 384 students

NOTE : Increase means addition that is why the number of students in the club last year is added to the actual increase

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.
