When you divide a fraction by a fraction, you're really just multiplying by a reciprocal. A reciprocal is the fraction flipped around.
So, 1/8 <span>÷ 1/4 is the same thing as 1/8 x 4/1
Now, you just multiply. 1 times 4 is 4. 8 times 1 is 8.
1/8 x 4/1=4/8
4/8 simplified is 1/2
So that is how 1/8</span><span>÷1/4=1/2</span>

There are 26 prize tickets in a bowl,labeled A to Z. What is the probability that a prize ticket with a vowel will be chosen,not
labwork [276]

Answer:

3.1%, dependent event

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that vowel are 5, it is from A, E, I, O, U therefore the probability of drawing a vowel is:

5/26

since there are a total of 26 options to choose from. Then, when selecting that, we are left with 25 options and 4 vowels, therefore the probability would be:

4/25

Therefore the final probability is:

5/26 * (4/25) = 0.031

In other words, selecting a vowel and then another (without replacement) the probability is 3.1%

The events are dependent, since the first event affects the second event, since the number of vowels and the number of total options are reduced.

Can someone help me with this
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2r +1/2= -2/7r  -29/7 Subtracting 1/2 from both sides

1/2r +1/2 - 1/2= -2/7r  -29/7- 1/2

1/2r = -2/7r  - 29(2)-7/14

1/2r = -2/7r  -65/14
