Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that three pairs of gloves- a red pair, a blue pair, and a green pair-are in a drawer.  The gloves are removed at random without returning any to the drawer.

We have to find the minimum number that must be removed in order to guarantee having a matched pair of gloves

No of different colours = 3 (red, blue, green)

Hence no of gloves that must be removed = 3+1

If 4 gloves are removed, only 3 can be of different colours 1 will have same colour as any one of the three.

So a pair of same colour would be obtained

Answer is 4

Is 36/54 the same as 48/72?
skad [1K]
\frac{36}{54} = \frac{18\times 2}{18\times 3} = \frac{2}{3}

\frac{48}{72} = \frac{24\times 2}{24\times 3}= \frac{2}{3}

So, yes! Both fractions are equivalent.

Answer:

3(6)-1

----------------

2(6)+1

Step-by-step explanation:

r(x) = 3x-1

s(x) = 2x+1

r(6) / s(6)

r(6) = 3(6)-1

s(6) = 2(6)+1

Putting r(6)/ s(6)

3(6)-1

----------------

2(6)+1
