Explanation:
<span>1/4 : 3 = (You have to divide by three, because you cut your part into 3 equal slices)
</span>1/4 : 3/1 = 
1/4 x 1/3 = (When dividing by a fraction, you have to multiply by its opposite)

Good morning. Let's figure this out.
I'm calling Harry, "Hairy" because it sounds better.

So, my friend Hairy here, has 1/4 of an apple pie.  Hairy wants to split 1/4 into 3. What would this call for? Division. Observe.

\frac{1}{4} /  \frac{3}{1} (We all know 3/1 = 3)

But wait, what must we do when we divide fractions? We must flip one fraction and multiply across. So instead the fraction would look a little like this: 

\frac{1}{4}  (\frac{1}{3}) =  \frac{1}{12}

And that, is the answer. The fractions of each slice of Hairy's pie would be:\frac{1}{12}

You're welcome.

= For one hour more than 60/6 =10 customers arrive.

P(X>10) = 0.6528

b) Prob that there will be exactly three arrivals during a given 10-minute period

P(x=3) for average 2

= 0.1804

The right answer is: Add 1, then divide by 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is:

6x-1 = 11

The solution of equation means that we have to isolate the variable on one side of the equation

So,

We will solve the equation to write the sequence of operations

So,

Adding 1 on both sides

6x-1+1 = 11+1\\6x = 12

Dividing both sides by 6

\frac{6x}{6} = \frac{12}{6}\\x = 2

We can see that the sequence is: Add 1 then divide by 6

Hence,

The right answer is: Add 1, then divide by 6
