The edison lightbulb company tests 5% of
their dailty production of lightbulbs. if 500 bulbs
were tested on tuesday, what was the total number
of bulbs produced that day?

25

Step-by-step explanation:

5% of 500 equals 25. 5 time 25 equals 500. There you go.

10,000 light bulbs were produced that day

Step-by-step explanation:

500/x = 5/100 , then that makes 5x=5000 all divided by 5 so you get 10,000 light bulbsalso you can check 10,000 x 5% = 500

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
