Answer:

   D.  0.098

Step-by-step explanation:

The probabilities of all choices must total 1, so we have ...

  p(never) + p(married) + p(widowed) + p(divorced) = 1

  p(divorced) = 1 - (p(never) + p(married) + p(widowed))

  = 1 - (0.239 + 0.595 + 0.068) = 1 - 0.902

  p(divorced) = 0.098

I need to model 2 equivalent fractions for 6 fifths
masha68 [24]

Two examples of equivalent fractions would be \frac{12}{10} and \frac{18}{15}.
Hope that helped you.
