First find 2/5 of 25.
This can be done by multiplying the two numbers.
2/5 × 25 = 10

10 is the distance from E to F.
So now that you have EF and know the overall length of EG (25), you can easily find FG.
25 - 10 = 15

The answer is:
d. 15

Caroline's coffee shop sells a refill mug for $8.95. Each refill cost $1.50. Last month Sean spent $26.95 on a mug and refills.

Alright! First you'd have to subtract the flat fee of the mug which is $8.95, then you'd have to divide by the rate which is $1.50. Your equation would be:
(26.95 - 8.95) ÷ 1.50 = r

Then you solve using your head.. lol.
(26.95 - 8.95) = 18.
(18 ÷ 1.50) = 12.
R = 12.

Hope this helps :).

A Permutation is an ordered Combination. When the order does matter it is a Permutation. There are basically two types of permutation:

Repetition is Allowed: such as the lock above. It could be "333".

No Repetition: for example the first three people in a running race. You can't be first and second.

Formula is given by:

$nC_r= \frac{n!}{r! (n-r)!}$ , where n is the number of things to choose from, and we choose r of them, no repetitions, order matters. Here , n=13 , r=3.
