Question

Based on the 2010 US census, the population of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, was about 96% of the population of Baltimore, Maryland. In 2010, if Milwaukee's population was about 595,000, which of the following is the best approximation of Baltimore's population?

  1. 620,000
  2. 570,000
  3. 300,000
  4. 95,000

The correct answer is: 620,000


    96% of population = 595,000
    100% of population = ?
    100 over 100 cross times 595000 equals 96 over 100 cross times x
    x = 619761.66 almost equal to 620,000.

    A square is inscribed in a circle with radius 6square root of 2 inches. What is the perimeter of the square in inches?

    A square's perimeter is the sum of the lengths of its four sides. As a result, we can calculate a square's perimeter by adding its four sides together. Each side of a square has the same length. Therefore, the side of a square is added four times to determine the perimeter of square.
    Each side of a square with a 9-square-inch area is 3 inches long. Therefore, 3 inches multiplied by 3 inches equals 9 inches. (Length times height is a square's surface area formula.) A square has four sides; therefore, multiplying '3' by '4' gives us the perimeter, which is 12 inches.
