You and your friend play a game. You answer 80% of the questions correctly and your friend answers 0.60 of the questions correct

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming both players can answer the same question, the minimum number of questions is the smallest number that when multiplied by either 0.60 or 0.80 yields a whole number.

Let x be the number of questions, solving by trial and error:

$if\ x=2\\x*0.8=1.6\\x*0.6=1.2\\\\if\ x=3\\x*0.8=2.4\\x*0.6=1.8\\\\if\ x=4\\x*0.8=3.2\\x*0.6=2.4\\\\if\ x=5\\x*0.8=4\\x*0.6=3\\\\$

Therefore, the minimum number of questions in the game is 5.

total cost = $40.20

So we see that the actual cost is similar with the estimate so his calculation is reasonable.

1/8 divided by 3/4 please help

dlinn [17]

1/8 divided by 3/4 is (1/8) / (3/4). When you divide fractions, you flip the 2nd number and change the divide into multiply. So (1/8)*(4/3). Multiply top by top and bottom by bottom to get 4/24. That simplifies to 1/6
