Equation for "five elevenths times a number is 55"

1 answer:

4 0

Let the unknown number be x.

5/11 * x = 55

Since x is being multiplied by 5/11, and you want x alone, you need to multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 5/11 which 11/5.

11/5 * 5/11 * x = 55/1 * 11/5

x = 605/5

x = 121

Answer: The number is 121.

Fred and Gina are playing tennis. The first player to win 2 sets wins their match. Fred has a 3/5 chance to win each set while G

Aleks [24]

Answer:

60/125 which can be reduced to 12/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Gina wins

2/5 * 2/5 = 4/25

3/5 * 2*5 * 2/5 = 12 /125

2/5 * 3/5 * 2/5 = 12/125

Fred Wins

3/5 * 3/5 = 9/25

2/5 * 3/5 * 3/5 = 18/125

3/5 * 2/5 * 3/5 = 18/125

P(3 sets) = (18 + 18 + 12 + 12)/125 = 60/125

P(2 sets) = (20 + 45)/125 = 65/125

I found the probability of 2 sets so I could add the results together to see if the probability totals 1. It does. This question is done correctly.
