3 pencils and 9 pens = 12 total
probability of picking pencil in 1st box is 3/12 which reduces to 1/4

7 pencils and 3 crayons = 10 total
probability of picking pencil from 2nd box is 7/10

probability of both = (1/4 * 7/10) = 7/40 <==

Out of the first box the possibility would be 3:12 or 3 out of 12. The second box would be 7:10 or 7 out of 10

It most common to round to the hundredths place, this is two spaces after the decimal. 

So look two spaces right - 0.17. If the third digit (in this case 6) is higher than 5 you round the number up if its not, keep it the same. 

"6" is greater than five, so round it to about (or approximately) 0.18.

Is 14/35 and 21/42 proportional
PIT_PIT [208]
1.Simplified each one 
2/5 (both divided by 7) ,  1/2 (divided by 21)
2.Make them into integer
(2/5 )*(2/2)=4/10    ,    (1/2)*(5/5)=5/10
Now the dominators are the same ,you can just compare the numerators. It is 4:5

Fraction of smoothie that is Banana = 1/4

The fraction of smoothies that were either banana or strawberry

= 1/4 + 2/3

Least Common Denominator= 12

= 11/12

The fraction of smoothies were either banana or strawberry is 11/12
