As stated in the solution, 3/7 is a negative fraction.
To make it less confusing,
2/7 x (-3/7)
Multiply the numerator with the other numerator and the denominator multiply with the other. Like...
2 multiply 3 = 6 (numerator)
7 multiply 7 = 49 (denominator)
Since the 2nd fraction is a negative, the answer is negative too.
If you convert the fraction to a decimal, it gives -0.1224489796
Let the additional fee , the shipping company charges be $y .
So for 0.75 pounds, since the weight is less then 1 pound, company charge = $2x
For 3 packages with weigh 2.5 pounds, company charge 3* ( x+(2.5-1)*y )
= 3x+4.5y
For package with weighs 4.2 pounds, company charge x+(4.2-1)y = x+3.1y
So the total amount , company charge = 2x +3x +4.5y +x+3.1y
=6x +7.6y
Total gumballs= 6 yellow+ 5 green + 4 red
= 15 gumballs
Green gumballs=5
Other gumballs= 15-5= 10
Probability= Other non-green gumballs/Total gumballs
=10/15 = 2/3
Probability of not getting green gumball is 2/3 or 66.66666.... %
The ration is 2:3.
