B. ____for every 50
C. 1 for every____
D. 0.5 for every ____
Please help

Answer 1

We will complete the given blanks in the given expressions that is equal to 16%.

A. ____ for every 100 = 16%

Let the unknown value be 'x'

x for every 100 = 16%

`(x)/(100)=(16)/(100)`

x = 16

Therefore, 16 for every 100 is 16% that is 0.16

B. ___ for every 50 = 16%

Let the unknown value be 'y'

y for every 50 = 16%

`(y)/(50)=(16)/(100)`

`(y)/(50)=0.16`

y = 8

Therefore, 8 for every 50 is 16%.

C. 1 for every ___ is 16%

Let the unknown value be 'z'

1 for every z is 16%

`(1)/(z)=(16)/(100)`

`100=16z`

`z=(100)/(16)`

z=6.25

1 for every 6.25 is 16%.

D. 0.5 for every ___ is 16%

Let the unknown value be 'w'

0.5 for every w is 16%

`(0.5)/(w)=(16)/(100)`

`50=16w`

`w=(50)/(16)`

w = 3.125

1 for every 3.125 is 16%.

Answer 2

A. 16 for every 100
B. 8 for every 50
C. 1 for every 6.25
D. 0.5 for every 3.125
