Hey there,
0.454545(45 being repeated)
45 / 100 = 9 / 20 (Divided by 5)

Hope this helps :))

0.45 is 45 divided by 100, so it is also 45/100.

b) How many ways can you deal cards (from a deck of 52) to 4 people when each player gets 7 cards. 2 hidden and 5 visible. Assum

Answer:

${52 \choose 7}{45 \choose 7}{38 \choose 7}{31 \choose 7}{7 \choose 2}^4$

Step-by-step explanation:

The dealing of the cards can be seen in the following way:

We first have to choose which 7 cards are going to be dealt to the 1st player. So we have to pick 7 cards out of the 52 available cards. This can be done in ${52 \choose 7}$ ways. Now that we have chosen which 7 cards are going to be dealt to the 1st player, we have to choose which 2 of them are going to be the hidden ones. So we have to pick 2 cards out of the 7 cards to be the hidden ones. This can be done in ${7 \choose 2}$ ways. At this point we now know which cards are being dealt to the 1st player, and which ones are hidden for him. Then we have to choose which 7 cards to deal to the 2nd player, out of the remaining ones. So we have to pick 7 out of 52-7=45. (since 7 have been already dealt to the 1st player). This can be done in ${45 \choose 7}$ . Then again, we have to pick which 2 are going to be the hidden cards for this 2nd player. So we have to pick 2 out of the 7. This can be done in ${7 \choose 2}$ ways. Then we continue with the 3rd player. We have to choose 7 cards out of the remaining ones, which at this point are 52-7-7=38. This can be done in ${38 \choose 7}$ . And again, we have to choose which ones are the hidden ones, which can be chosen in ${7 \choose 2}$ ways. Finally, for the last player, we choose 7 out of the remaining cards, which are 52-7-7-7=31. This can be done in ${31 \choose 7}$ ways. And choosing which ones are the hidden ones for this player can be done in ${7 \choose 2}$ ways. At the end, we should multiply all our available choices on each step, to get the total choices or total ways to deal the cards to our 4 players (since dealing the cards is a process of several steps with many choices on each step).

${52 \choose 7}{7 \choose 2}{45 \choose 7}{7 \choose 2}{38 \choose 7}{7 \choose 2}{31 \choose 7}{7 \choose 2}={52 \choose 7}{45 \choose 7}{38 \choose 7}{31 \choose 7}{7 \choose 2}^4$
