Respuesta :

Answer:

3 of the workers know how to ski and snowboard.

Step-by-step explanation:

You would take the 16 workers and divide it by the denominator being 5.

You would get 3.2 but since you can not have 1/5 of a person you would round down and get 3.

Answer:

Five of 16 workers in the shop know how to ski. 1/5 of those who can ski also know how to snowboard.  The fraction of the workers can ski and snowboard is 3 workers

Explanation:

No of workers who know to ski= 5

No of workers who can ski as well as snowboard=1/5 of the total

= [tex]\frac{1}{5}\times 16[/tex]

= 3.2

Rounding off the figures  to the nearest value= 3

=3 workers

The fraction of the workers can ski and snowboard is 3 workers
