Answer:
16 lamps
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
96 lamps represent the 100%
so
using proportion
Find out how many lamps represent 16 2/3%
but first convert to an improper fraction
[tex]16\frac{2}{3}\%=\frac{16*3+2}{3}=\frac{50}{3}\%[/tex]
Apply proportion
[tex]\frac{96}{100\%}=\frac{x}{\frac{50}{3}\%} \\\\x= (\frac{50}{3})(96)/100\\\\x=16[/tex]
