The easy way is to multiply 1/8 by 3: 1x3=3, 8x3=24, 3/24. Tony has 24 books :)

The question is asking to calculate the book that Tony have in all if one eight of his book are 3 mystery books, base on the questions, and on my further calculation, I would say that the answer would be 24 books. I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more if you have questions

How many times greater was the temperature in Miami (45) than the lowest in San Diego (25)

Greeley [361]

Answer:

The temperature in Miami is 9/5 times the temperature in San Diego.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratios

To compare the temperature in Miami (45) with the temperature in San Diego (25), we use the division or ratio between both numbers:

$\displaystyle \frac{45}{25}$

Simplify the fraction dividing by 5:

$\displaystyle \frac{9}{5}$

Since the relation between them is 9/5, it means the temperature in Miami is 9/5 times the temperature in San Diego.

A fair coin is flipped twelve times. What is the probability of the coin landing tails up exactly nine times?

seraphim [82]

Answer:

$P\left(E\right)=\frac{55}{1024}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a fair coin is flipped twelve times.

It means the number of possible sequences of heads and tails would be:

2¹² = 4096

We can determine the number of ways that such a sequence could contain exactly 9 tails is the number of ways of choosing 9 out of 12, using the formula

$nCr=\frac{n!}{r!\left(n-r\right)!}$
