Answer: 0.3 .
Step-by-step explanation:
The digits in number system = 10 ( 0 to 9)
The total different nine-digit Social security numbers =
[By Fundamental counting principle]
= 1 billion
Total people in united state = 300 million = 300, 000 ,000
Since each person In US have equal chance to get chosen.
Therefore , if a number is selected randomly , then the probability that it belongs to one of the 300 million people in the United States :-

Hence, the required probability is 0.3 .
So say we have the number: 54,321
The 5 would be worth 50,000 meaning it's in the ten thousands place.
The 4 would be worth 4,000 meaning it's in the thousands place.
.
The difference between them is a zero, so the ten thousands place is 10 times bigger than the thousands place
.
Hope that helps :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If two ratios make a proportion then it can be shown as:
Let's verify the answer choices with this method
A. 1/4 and 5/25
- 1*25 = 4*5
- 25 = 20, incorrect, not a proportion
B. 1/4 and 7/24
- 1*24 = 4*7
- 24 = 28, incorrect, not a proportion
C. 1/4 and 10/48
- 1*48 = 4*10
- 48 = 40, incorrect, not a proportion
D. 1/4 and 9/36
- 1*36 = 4*9
- 36 = 36, correct, this is a proportion
