Answer:
16/9 pounds or 1.667... pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
8/9 + 1/9 = 1
2/3=6/9
1 + 6/9 = 16/9 or 1.667
To solve this question, we should set up a system of equations. Let a represent the number of passengers on bus 1 and b represent the number of passengers on bus 2.
From the question, we can set up the two equations:
1/3(a+b)=24
a=34
To solve this system, it is easiest to substitute the value we know for a into the first equation. If we do this, we get:
1/3(34+b)=24
To simplify this equation, we need to divide both sides by 1/3 in order to get the variable b alone. After simplifying, we get the equation:
34 + b = 72
Finally, we subtract 34 from both sides to get the variable b alone.
b = 38
Therefore, there were 38 passengers on bus 2.

The Venn Diagram that represents the problem is shown below
P(E|F) and P(F|E) are the conditional probability.
P(E|F) is given by P(E∩F) ÷ P(F) = ¹/₂ ÷ ¹/₂ = 1
P(F|E) is given by P(F∩E) ÷ P(E) = ¹/₂ ÷ ¹/₂ = 1
The percentage difference is 20%.
This is because 20% of 15,000 is 3,000 and the difference between 15,000 tickets and 12,000 tickets is 3,000
