Question

Sixteen students have cell phones. Five of the cell phones have touch screens. Out of 114 students' cell phones, how many would you expect to have touch screens? Plz include valid work.

A) 5
B) 16
C) 45
D) 90

Answer 1

Answer: Did you mean 35 instead of 45?

Explanation:

5/16 = x/114

then you have to cross multiply: 5 times 114 & 16 times x

it equals 16x=570

then you divide both sides by 16 so 16/16 which is 1 so x is by itself and 570 divided by 16

Answer is 35.625 --> 35

Answer 2

The answer would be 5

The problem states 5 of the cell phones have touch screens
