Weight of an grapefruit=weight of an orange+8% weight of an orange
weight of an apple=weight of an orange -10% weight of an orange

a.<span>By what percentage is the grapefruit heavier than the apple?
We should find the connection between grapefruit and an apple. We know the connection between the weight of a grapefruit and an orange, we know the connection between an orange and an apple, so this means we know the connection between a grapefruit and an apple.
</span>
weight of an grapefruit=weight of an <span>orange+8% weight of an orange
</span>weight of an orange=weight of an apple<span> +10% weight of an apple
</span>
-> weight of an grapefruit=weight of an apple+10% weight of an apple + 8%(weight of an apple+10% weight of an apple)= weight of an apple + 18% weight of an apple + 2% weight of an apple= <span>weight of an apple + 20% weight of an apple 

</span><span>b.By what percentage is the apple lighter than the grapefruit?
</span>weight of an grapefruit=weight of an apple + 20% weight of an apple<span> 
</span>
-> The apple ts 20% lighter than the grapefruit.

In a game of rock paper scissors, what are the chances that someone playing against a person playing only paper would win?

As for the answer, if you were to make a chart to show rock, paper, and scissors, you'd be able to see that there's a 2/3 chance of winning by choosing rock. With scissors, there's also a 2/3 chance to win. Now with paper, there's only a 1/3 chance to win. Knowing that the other person will only play paper, the best answers would be to choose either rock or scissors.

(there are, of course, flaws with this concept, because the opponent could be lying about playing only paper. More or less, it's a good design to show probability.)

<CDE = 180° - 30° - 70°

<CDE = 80°
