First we would change the fractions into decimals and compare them. That way it would be easy to solve when needed.
1/2=0.50
5/8=0.625
1/8=0.125
Now we can see that 1/8 (0.125) is the smallest, followed by 1/2 (0.50), and 5/8 the largest. Now we can match the sizes with the insects.
Since the tiger beetle is the largest we will place that with the length of 5/8 since that is the largest.
The carpenter ant is second largest so it would be matched with 1/2
The aphid is the smallest so that would be with 1/8 as the smallest

Answer:
132 tiles
Step-by-step explanation:
Each tile cost $4
The adhesive/grouting material costs $17.82.
If the contractor pays a total of $545.82
Let the number of tiles be represented as x
The equation is represented as:
$17.82 + $4 × x = $545.82
17.82 + 4x = 545.82
Collect like terms
4x = 545.82 - 17.82
4x = 528
Divide bother sides by 4
4x/4 = 528/4
x = 132
The number of ceramic tiles the contractor bought = 132 tiles

Answer:
0.8594
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a denote the event of forgetting to shut off machine and b be the event of being defective.
-A foreman forgets to shut off machine 55% of the time.
-If he forgets, 15% of molds are defective.
-If he does not, 3% of molds are defective.
#The probability that he forgot to shut off the machine is calculated as:
P(a and ~b)=0.55(1-0.15)=0.4675
P(~a and b) = (1-0.55)*0.03=0.0135
P(~a and ~b) = (1-0.55)*(1-0.03)=0.4365
#Conditional probability is defined as:
Hence, the probability that the foreman forgot to shut off the machine the previous night is 0.8594
