The range 1-100 is 100 numbers, divide by 4 and 5 to find the number of multiples.
100/4 = 25
100/5 = 20

probability of choosing multiple of 4
25/100 = 1/4
probability of choosing multiple of 5
20/100 = 1/5

the probabilities are not mutually exclusive because there are duplicate numbers, (overlap) multiples of both 4 and 5 being counted twice. 5/100 = 1/20
20, 40, 60, 80, 100

when "or" is used, add the probabilities, subtract the duplicates.

1/4 + 15 - 1/20 =
5/20 + 4/20 - 1/20 = 8/20 = 2/5

How many litters of apple syrup and water did she use in the ratio of 2:3 and made 1800 ml of such fruit juice
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

720 mL ; 1080 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Givenn:

Apple syrup : water = 2 : 3

Fruit juice volume made using the ratio above = 1800 ml

Sum of ratio = 2 + 3 = 5

Litres of Apple syrup :

(Syrup ratio / total) * total volume of fruit

(2 / 5) * 1800

= 0.4 * 1800

= 720 ml

Litres of water :

(water ratio / total) * total volume of fruit

(3 / 5) * 1800

= 0.6 * 1800

= 1080 ml
