-- The person in the audience will either win tickets or not win tickets.
-- The probability of (either win tickets or not win tickets) is 100%.
-- (Probability of win tickets) plus (probability of not win tickets) = 100%.
-- If (probability of win tickets) is 15%, then the (probability of not win tickets)
is the other 85%.
Answer:
N = 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
let the number be N
let's express the word sentence as a mathematical expression:
"a number multiplied by 2/5"
= "N" multiplied by 2/5
= N x (2/5)
= (2N/5) ------- (1)
"a number multiplied by 2/5 is 3/20" can be written as:
(2N/5) = 3/20 (multiplying both sides by 5)
2N = (3/20) x 5
2N = 3/4 (divide both sides by 2)
N = (3/4) ÷ 2
N = (3/4) x (1/2)
N = 3/8
