Asnapshot is taken at a busy intersection and analysed. it shows that 16 people are in personl vehicles, 56 people are in buses, and 24 are walking. what fraction ( in lowest terms) of the people are in vehicles?

3/4, or three quarters of people are on vehicles.

Step-by-step explanation:

solution 1:find the number of vehicles

personal vehicles and buses are both vehicles so we add the number, 16 and 56 to get a total of 72 people on vehicles. the total number of people there is 16+56+24 and this is 96. now we express this as a fraction and get 72/96. we simplify by dividing 24 from both top and bottom to get 3/4.

solution 2:find the number of people walking and subtract.

24 are walking out of the 96. this means 1/4 people are walking and the rest are on vehicles. 1- 1/4 is 3/4, so 3/4 people are on vehicles.

answer: 0.26

i used the calculator on google

the functions have the same rate of change i think. i narrowed it down to this answer and "the rate of change of tour 1 is greater" but i got it wrong using that answer so im assuming its the answer above. (this is a question i also answered from the iready site if anyone needs a reference)
