'One third' as a decimal is 1 ÷ 3 = 0.333333..... ⇒ The decimal is recurring

'One fifth' as decimal is 1 ÷ 5 = 0.2 ⇒ The decimal terminates at the tenth value

'One seventh' as decimal 1 ÷ 7 = 0.142857142857.... ⇒ The decimal is recurring for every digit between 1 and 7

'One ninth' as decimal 1 ÷ 9 = 0.111111.... ⇒ The decimal is recurring

Answer: one fifth

8. In a large population, 63% of the people have been vaccinated. If 4 people are randomly selected, what is the probability tha

Ludmilka [50]

The probability that none of the four have been vaccinated is
(1-0.63)^4 = 0.01874161

The probability that at least one has been vaccinated is the complement of this,
≈0.9813

60 students on field trip 20 students were 8th graders. What ratio shows relationship between eighth graders and everyone who we

Flauer [41]

Answer:

Percentage=33.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students=Number of 8th grader+others who went on trip

where;

Total number of students=60

Number of 8th graders=20

Others who went on trip=x

replacing;

60=20+x

x=(60-20)

x=40

Others who went on trip=x=40

Ratio of number of eighth graders to the number of everyone who went on the trip is;

Eighth graders who went=20 students

Everyone who went including the eighth graders=60

20/60==1/3

(1/3)×100=33.33%

Percentage=33.33%

A fair spinner has 10 equal sections: 3 red, 3 blue and 4 green. It is spun twice. What is the probability of getting not green

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

0.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the ratio of the number of possible outcome to the number of total outcome. The probability that an even will happen or not happen is 1.

Given that the spun has 10 sections 3 red, 3 blue and 4 green, the probability of not getting green

= (3 + 3)/(3 + 3 + 4)

= 6/10

The probability of getting green

= 4/10

Hence the probability of getting not green then green

= 6/10 * 4/10

= 24/100

= 0.24
