Atown has 300 residents in total, of which 5/6 are white/caucasian americans. how many white/caucasian americans reside in this town?

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, it's asking you to find how many White\Caucasian Americans are in the town.

To find the answer, we would need to use some important information in the question.

Important information:

With the information above, we can solve the problem.

5/6 is the same as 0.83333 (or 0.83 for short), so this means that 83% of the people in the town are White/Caucasian.

We would multiply 300 by 0.83 to get the total number of residents that are White/Caucasian.

You should get 249.

This means that 249 residents are White/Caucasian.

second option

step-by-step explanation:

the measures of a triangle equal 180. use that to find x.

2x+3x+4x=180

9x=180

9x/9=180/9

x=20

now you know x, you know angle a is 40°, angle b is 60°, angle c is 80°.

because angle a is 40°, the first option doesn't work.

because angle b is 60°, the second option does work.

when you add angle a and b, you get 100°. complementary means it equals 90°, so the third option doesn't work.

when you add angle a and c, you get 120°, which is not 100.
