8/9 = 0,8
0,8/4 = 0,2
so each piece was 0,2 yard long
If Hannah gives her younger sister 3 shirts, it does not matter what order she hands them to her. No matter the order, it will still be the same group of 3 shirt. Since order is not important this problem can be solved using a combination.
Specifically, we are asked to find 8C3 (sometimes called "8 choose 3"). This is a fraction. In the numerator, we start with 8 and count down 3 numbers. In the denominator, we start with 3 and count all the way down to 1.
your answer is 56
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
5 people in the room have 5*40 = 200 years altogether
a new person is X years old.
Now 6 people have (200 + x) years altogether.
Mean age of 6 people is (200+x)/6. and it is also = 40.
So,
(200+x)/6 = 40
200 + x = 240
x = 40
