500 − 250  = 250 pieces left after donation

 

Yolanda got  180 pieces....then Enrique  got 70 pieces

 

So he got   70 /250  = 7/25  =  28%  of the remaining candy

The weather forecast says that the probability of being cloudy tomorrow is 30% and the probability of raining is 25%. If it is c
Bumek [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

\large\boxed{C).\,13.5\%}

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

In this question, we're trying to find the probability of it being cloudy and raining.

In this case, we know that:

  • Probability of it being cloudy is 30%
  • Probability of it raining is 25% (this is necessarily not needed)
  • If it's cloud, the probability of it raining is 45%

With the information above, we can find the probability.

We know that from a 100% scale, the chance of it being cloudy is 30%.

We know that if it's cloudy, the chances of raining is 45%

To find the probability of it being cloudy and raining, we would multiply 0.3 (30%) by 0.45 (45%)

Solve:

0.3*0.45=0.135\\\\\text{Move the decimal place two times to the right}\\\text{to turn it into a percent}\\\\\boxed{13.5\%}

Your answer would be C). 13.5%

<h3>I hope this helped you out.</h3><h3>Good luck on your academics.</h3><h3>Have a fantastic day!</h3>
