Well, for his you would have to find the unit rate.
The easiest way to do this would first be converting 3/5 into a fraction (0.6)

next, divide that by 4 to get the weight of 1.

0.6/4 (the same as 0.6 x 0.25 or 6/10 x 1/4 if you are doing it without a calculator)

each bread weighs 3/20 (or 0.15) pounds.

Greetings!

We can create an equation to solve:

Let W represent the weight of an individual bread roll.
$W= \frac{ \frac{3}{5} }{4}$

Multiply both sides by $\frac{1}{4}$ .
$W=\frac{ \frac{3}{5} }{\frac{4}{1}}$

$W=\frac{3}{5}*\frac{1}{4}$

$W=\frac{3}{20}$

The Answer Is:
$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}W= \frac{3}{20}\end{array}\right]$

The weight of one bread roll is $\frac{3}{20}$ pounds.

Hope this helps.

A medical researcher wondered if there is a significant difference between the mean birth weight of boy and girl babies. Random

Answer:

b) independent samples t-test

$t=\frac{(5.92 -5.74)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{1.88^2}{5}}+\frac{1.81^2}{5}}=0.154$

$p_v =2*P(t_{8}>0.154) =0.881$

So with the p value obtained and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the mean of the group 1 (boys) is NOT significantly different than the mean for the group 2 (Girls).
