The amazing art museum has 50 exhibits. on monday, 22% of them were closed for cleaning. how many exhibits were closed on monday?

11 exhibits are closed. 0.22 x 50 = 11

Hello! In order to solve this problem, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:

x/50 = 22/100

This is because were are looking for the number of closed exibits on Monday out of 50, and 22% is a part of 100%. Cross multiply the values in roder to get 100x = 1,100. Divide each side by 100 to isolate the "x". 1,100/100 is 11. To check this answer, we can multiply 50 by 22% (0.22). 50 * 0.22 is 11. There. x = 11. 11 exibits were closed on Monday.

Ifound this on google “that means that the graph of a function with direct variation has these features: it is a straight line: because the slope is the ratio y/x = k. it passes through the origin (0,0): because y = kx = k (0) = 0.” i hope this you for what your looking for
