Q
Q: If a football team has 22 players and 5 are substitutes, what fraction of the team are substitutes? (2022)
Solution: Fraction of substitutes = Number of substitutes / Total players = 5 / 22.
Steps: 4
Step 1: Identify the total number of players in the football team. In this case, there are 22 players.
Step 2: Identify the number of substitutes. Here, there are 5 substitutes.
Step 3: Write the fraction of substitutes by placing the number of substitutes over the total number of players. This gives us 5 (substitutes) over 22 (total players).
Step 4: The fraction of the team that are substitutes is 5/22.
