There are 6 pockets all together. You checked two of them and it wasn't
there. So you can forget about those 2, and now there are 4 pockets left.
The total number of ways for your next try is 4.
The number that will be successful is 1.
The probability of success on the next one is <em>1/4 = 25% .</em>
=======================================================
Another method of solution, somewhat more complex:
Total number of pockets = 6.
Amount of money missing = $10
First partial sum, i.e. sum of numbers
in the first part of the problem = 6 + 10 = 16.
Total number of pockets = 6
Current value of cargo pants on a fashion scale from 1 to 10 = -2.
Second partial sum = 6 - 2 = 4.
Probability = (second partial sum) / (first partial sum) = 4/16 = <em>25% </em>.
Answer: x+y
Step-by-step explanation: 4x-4y-3x-3y
4x-3x is x
4y-3y is y
First, find 3/4 of 24. 24/4=6, 6x3= 18. Now, find 1/9 of 18. 18 divided by the denominator, 9, is 2. Since the numerator is one, our answer remains as 2. So yeah, the answer is 2.
Answer:
7 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
35 divided by 5 = 7.
Using cross multiply and divide the equation looks like so 46/115 next to x/100 to get an answer of 40%
