This is the theory of probability. We are required to calculate the probability that an animal picked at random is a beige fur kitten given that there are 15 kittens and 20 puppies and the number of beige fur kittens and puppies is 25.
P(picking a kitten)=(number of kittens)/(total number of animals)
=15/35
=3/7
probability of an animal being beige fur is;
25/35
=5/7
The probability that the kitten selected is a beige fur will be:
3/7*5/7
= 15/49

6 1/2+n=12. please explain for me I dunno how to do this.

Hey there!

Let's first define our goal. Our goal here is to be able to isolate the variable, n, and solve for it by moving everything to the other side. We see that we have two sides of the equation, and by using the property of equality which states that whatever you do to one side you do to the other and the expression remains equal, we can solve this equation.

It looks like the only thing we have on the left side with n is that 6 1/2. In order to get rid of it, we must subtract it from both sides, because the property of equality states you must do the inverse operation.

We have:

n = 12 - 6 1/2

n = 5 1/2

Hope this helps!
