3/4 is 75/100 so just put 75/100 divided by 9/100 to get your answer

Answer:


(25)/(3) times.

Explanation:

Three fourths of college students use the Internet more than the library.

Internet more=
(3)/(4) of total students

Nine hundredths use the library more.

Library more =
(9)/(100) of total students

We need to find how many times more students use the Internet. To find this we have to divide
(3)/(4) by
(9)/(100).


(3)/(4)/ (9)/(100)=(3)/(4)* (100)/(9)


(3)/(4)/ (9)/(100)=(300)/(36)


(3)/(4)/ (9)/(100)=(25)/(3)

Therefore,
(25)/(3) times more students use the internet.
