Jasmine is a receptionist at a doctors office . She books 36 appointments each day. Four out of every 24 appointments are cancelled. How many appointments are cancelled each day?

Respuesta :

Answer:

6 appointments are cancelled per day

Step-by-step explanation:

Question says  4 out of 24 appointments are cancelled.

It means out of 1 appointment , the cancelled appointments = [tex]\frac{4}{24}[/tex]

=[tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Now the questions says each day there are 36 appointments

And we have to find how many appointments got cancelled each day,

It means we have to find how many appointments got cancelled out of 36 appointments each day

So we multiply 36  by [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

=[tex]36 * \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

= 6


Hence , 6 appointments got cancelled each day.
