Question

In a juggling competition, 7/ 20 of all the jugglers use balls only, 3/ 7 of all the jugglers use rings only, and the rest of jugglers use both balls and rings. If there are less than 200 jugglers in the competition, how many jugglers use both balls and rings?

Answer 1

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

Number who use balls only = 7 / 20

Number who use rings only = 3/7

Fraction who use both :

1 - (7/20 + 3/7)

1 - 0.7785714

= 0.2214285

If number of jugglers is less than 200

Number of jugglers who use both :

0.2214285 * 200

= 44.285714

Number of jugglers who use both should be about 44
