Answer:

The number of Pumpkin can used   = 48 cans

The number of Green Beans can used =   16 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of Pumpkin to Green Beans =  3 :  1

So, for every 3 can of Pumpkin, 1 can of green beans is used.

Now, the total number of  John  wants to use = 64

Let us assume the common factor in the ratio is m.

⇒ The number of Pumpkin can used  = 3 m

The number of Green Beans can used = 1 m = m

So, the Total cans used = Number of (Pumpkin + Green Beans) can

⇒ 3 m + m = 64

or, 4 m =  64

⇒ m = 64/ 4 = 16

Hence, The number of Pumpkin can used  = 3 m = 3 x 16 = 48 cans

The number of Green Beans can used = m =  16 cans

Answer:

I thought that all races were = I thought it was fine we all loved each other and that there were protests. That the black lives matter. if a police officer kills a white man bc the white man is a threat then no one cares but if a police man kills a black man bc a black man is a threat everyone protests. I thought we were = but then black people are out there saying there lives matter. They do but white lives matter too so do blue lives and green lives and purple lives. Everyone matters but if you say that apparently you get in trouble. All lives matter but instead people had to make a program titled black lives matter.

12. A drawer contains 2 red socks, 6 white socks,
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Probability that first sock is blue is 0.33 and Probability that second sock is red is 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red socks = 2

Number of white socks = 6

Number of blue socks = 4

Total socks in drawer = 2+6+4 = 12

The formula used to calculate probability is: Probability=\frac{Number \ of \ favourable \ outcomes}{Total \ number \ of  \ outcomes}

We are given you draw out a  sock, return it, and draw out a second sock.

We need to find the probability that the first sock is blue and the  second sock is red?

Using formula:

Probability that first sock is blue = 4/12 = 1/3 = 0.33

Probability that second sock is red = 2/12 = 1/6 = 0.16

So, Probability that first sock is blue is 0.33 and Probability that second sock is red is 0.16
